Help Elect John Kovac And Support His Campaign

john_photo-overlayThe Canadian-Croatian Chamber of Commerce is pleased to inform you that John Kovac, a member of our Croatian-Canadian community is a candidate for City Councillor, Ward 4 in the Mississauga By-Election, to be held April 27th, 2015.

He was born and raised in Mississauga and has lived there his entire life.  John cares deeply for the beautiful city of Mississauga, its residents and homeowners; they are friends, family and neighbours.

John graduated from the University of Toronto and earned an Honours Bachelor of Arts Degree, double-majoring in Literature and History.  In order to help pay for his tuition, John learned a trade – carpentry.  His summers were spent working on construction sites across Mississauga, contributing to the building of this great city.

Volunteering has always been a big part of John’s life.  He truly believes in the electoral process and has spent the years following graduation working in public service. Recently, John managed a constituency office on behalf of a local Member of Provincial Parliament in Ward 4. In that position, he spent his days tending to the needs of local residents. John is a champion of social causes and has worked for a labour union as a liaison between the members and the government.

While the Canadian-Croatian Chamber of Commerce is a not-for-profit (and non-political) network of Croatian-Canadian businesses, professionals and community organizations that does not endorse any political parties, we are pleased to acknowledge and support the endeavours of Canadians of Croatian descent. As such, in addition to wishing John a successful campaign and election, we feel that it is important to assist him in his campaign and in ensuring that our Croatian-Canadian community has a voice in municipal politics.

Many speak of the need for the next generation in our community to step up – this is our opportunity to support a younger, vibrant, intelligent community leader. John is a great candidate that will be able to fill the shoes of former Croatian-Canadian political representatives, including the likes of MPP Mr. John (Domagoj) Šola and MP Mr. Janko Perić, as well as join other representatives currently in office including Minister of State, the Hon. Lynne Yelich and the Mayor of Kitchener, Mr. Berry Vrbanovic, among others.

We ask you to please support John by contributing to his campaign: http://johnkovac.ca/
