Shaila has taught children, written a widely acclaimed children’s book entitled Maariyah’s Day, freelanced for CBC Radio, and is an essential member of the University of Toronto at Mississauga (UTM) community.
For Shaila, community involvement is about making the lives of regular people in the riding safer, healthier, and more prosperous. Always a trailblazer, Shaila has spearheaded many initiatives that have made a difference in the lives of others.
