“I have been a part of the Ottawa First Fireworks Committee with Dan Aussem for more than 10 years. We have coordinated in community family events such as the Ottawa First Talent Competition, Outdoor Family Movie Night, the annual KidZ BlocK with Touch A Truck & most recently he was significantly helpful in assisting with the needs of the Make A Wish Penguin Plunge. I also had the pleasure of serving with him, his family & friends at a gift breakfast for the community and veterans.
I believe it is important to recognize that no one gets it right all the time, but that is not necessarily for lack of caring or trying. Being in a position where one is continually in the spot light magnifies everything.
What I have found over the years is that Dan is personable, open to ideas, and uses his time, resources, and heart not only for his family, but his community.”
“Since 1881, the Mid-America Carpenters Regional Council has been a united brotherhood of workers whose
primary mission is championing the rights and interests of working families. And like those within our trade who
blazed a trail before us, our labor organization of more than 52,000 hardworking men and women believes that
democracy is not a spectator sport. Our commitment to workers’ rights requires us to be active in the political

After careful consideration, it is with sincere pride that I inform you that the Mid-America Carpenters Regional
Council endorses your candidacy for Mayor of the City of Ottawa. Thank you for your unwavering support of
organized labor and the working families we represent. We know you will continue to be a strong advocate for our

Our skilled men and women rely on leaders who respect our trade and will support opportunities that enable
