Tim Tierney, from Beacon Hill-Cyrville, is now president of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities — the first in 87 years. With his office just blocks from Parliament Hill, Tierney is ready to walk straight into power and amplify municipal voices, especially on critical infrastructure funding. Having spent 15 years with the FCM, he knows its influence — and now, with Ottawa’s spotlight, he’s pushing for sewage systems, roads, and other essential projects that keep communities running. As Canada navigates trade and unity, Tierney sees infrastructure as the backbone of national strength — and he’s not backing down, even if it means showing up daily in Ottawa’s halls of power. His year in charge? Fully loaded with ambition to make sure every town and city gets heard. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
