“You can trust in Ivy Lee’s leadership to build a better future for the city of Markham. Her values towards affordable housing ensures everyone has an opportunity to build a family in Markham. Her integrity and hard work ethic makes her stand out from the rest.”

“Ivy Lee is incredibly hard-working, passionate and has a strong sense of empathy for others. I have seen her overcome many tough challenges in life and resolve conflicts and difficult situations with remarkable patience and admirable tact. She has been an active community member in Markham for many years and I believe she would be an excellent Regional Councillor to meet the needs of Markham’s residents and businesses.”

“Ivy is a dynamo—a true superwoman—with incredible energy and a genuine passion for helping others. Her life story continues to amaze me. As a young woman, she overcame the odds, became a business owner, immigrated to Canada, furthered her education, and raised her family in the City of Markham. All these years later, she still has that same fire, determination, and ambition.

Ivy has built an incredible network of relationships over the years. She is respected and well regarded by the people who know her, and she has a remarkable ability to bring people together. She is also a strong negotiator and, perhaps more importantly, an excellent listener. She is practical, factual, and very numbers-oriented—qualities I have always admired about her.

One of Ivy’s strongest passions is helping seniors. She has always had a genuine interest in supporting and advocating for older members of the community. Another of her ambitions is to help make Markham the number one city in the world—a reflection of how strongly she believes in the city and its potential.

Through her love of Markham and her commitment to the community, Ivy has become an unofficial public servant in many ways. She truly cares about the people around her and has consistently demonstrated that through her actions.

Today, Ivy is also a proud grandmother, adding another personal connection to the community and another perspective to her understanding of the needs of families and seniors.”

“I rarely come across real talents who stand out like Ivy Lee, a woman with an incredible work ethic and a big heart. I’ve seen her work create impactful and positive change for the Markham community. Her integrity, can-do attitude and ability to get things done really set her apart from other candidates I’ve seen. Ivy earns my highest recommendation for Regional Councillor of Markham.”

“Ivy Lee is a hard working person with a great deal of integrity. I have worked with her on 2 boards for which she has been a pillar of strength. Should Ivy be voted as a Markham Regional Councillor she will go beyond her duties and will be a great asset to the city.”

“I hope to see Ivy Lee elected to take care of Markham Regional Council. From the time I’ve met Ivy Lee prior to opening my fitness club in Markham (THE MARKHAM GYM) she has helped me resolve issues, build relationships and progress. Ivy Lee never disappointed me, she always has good intentions, she is a friend indeed. I support Ivy Lee.”

“Ivy Lee is a business woman with integrity, love and patience. She has a clear sense of community and purpose. Her contributions and persistence in bringing positive changes to the City of Markham is admirable. Throughout her life, Ivy has been striving for progress. She knows what the community expects of the government, and what the government should do to fulfil on those expectations. If Ivy is elected, she will fight for her constituency and voters to be heard at City Council.”

“I fully endorse Ivy and her CARES campaign. Markham will be better for having Ivy as a regional counsellor.”

“We have experienced Ivy’s commitment to the Markham community firsthand.

From helping us prepare for the opening of CO-OP 1950 Tea Shop to supporting our tea shop setup, Ivy gave us her time, energy, and genuine care. She doesn’t just talk about supporting local businesses—she shows up and takes action.

In our view, a strong Markham Regional Councillor should listen, understand the community, and get things done. Ivy brings that experience, heart, and commitment.

We are grateful for her support and proud to have someone like Ivy who truly cares about Markham and its community.”

“我們親身感受到 Ivy 對萬錦社區的用心與承擔。

從協助我們籌備 CO-OP 1950 茶店開幕，到茶店的設置，Ivy 都親自投入時間、精力和心意。她不只是說支持本地企業，更是真正親自參與、付諸行動。

在我們心目中，一位好的 Markham Regional Councillor（萬錦市區域議員），應該願意聆聽、了解社區，更要真正把事情做好。Ivy 有經驗、有熱誠，更有一份真正服務社區的心。

我們感謝她一直以來的支持，也很欣慰萬錦有一位真正關心本地企業和社區的人。”
