Ottawa, ON — The leader of the People's Party of Canada, Maxime Bernier, issued the following statement:

"I was saddened to learn of the passing of Giorgio Mammoliti.

Giorgio had a long and distinguished career in public service — first as an NDP Member of Provincial Parliament, and later as a long-serving Toronto city councillor. What defined him was not party ideology, but his dedication to the people he represented.

He was known as a principled man who was willing to stand apart from his own party to serve his constituents' interests when he believed it was necessary. That independence of mind is increasingly rare in politics.

We were honoured that Giorgio chose to run as a People’s Party candidate in the 2025 federal election. His decision reflected the same independent spirit that guided him throughout his career — a commitment to serving people, not political machines.

On behalf of the People’s Party of Canada, I extend my sincere condolences to his family, friends, and all those who knew him.

May he rest in peace."
