#### Voting History

**^1**  In Episode 07, the vote ended with a 5-5 tie between Stew and Ting, forcing a revote. Mili did not change her vote on the revote.

### *Solomon Islands*

On *Canadian Survivor: Solomon Islands*, Mili was a member of the Tahaanuku tribe. She had always been a strong player, but on Day 8, she had a minor disagreement with tribe mate Shehan Themiya. Despite this setback, Mili continued to work hard and build relationships with her fellow tribe members.

On Day 16, Mili found something in common with Justyna Dybiec, and they became fast friends. However, their alliance with Malik Hussain was not as strong, and he felt it would be better for the alliance to join the majority in voting Justyna off. Mili was disappointed, but she understood the importance of numbers in the game.

Day 19 was a turning point for Mili. She targeted Shehan from their previous beef and Shehan's earlier meltdown, convincing Malik and his allies to send Shehan home. This move solidified Mili's position in the game, and she knew she had to keep pushing forward.

As the game progressed, Mili's alliances shifted and changed. On Day 24, the original Tahaanuku tribe voted out previous winner, Dan Nagy, by a 3-2 vote. Mili, along with Omar Morsli, formed the Tigoa Three and recruited Lola Wong to join their alliance. However, at the next Tribal Council, Mili joined her Borneo Three in voting out Jordin Tootoo and betraying her new alliance. This move caused Lola to leave the Tigoa Three and in turn, Mili and the Borneo Three voted Lola out of the game.

Day 30 saw the Niupani Two and Tigoa Two join forces to reduce the Kagaba Three to Two. They chose to vote out the challenge threat, Ronny Nyathi. Day 33, Mili influenced the vote to take out Robina Khan. Day 36, Mili targeted Jess Perreault, but she couldn't influence Malik into joining her and instead, Malik turned on Borneo Three and voted out Stew Harris.

Finally, on Day 39, Mili stood at the Final Tribal Council, facing off against Omar. Mili had played a strong game, and her influence and strategic thinking had earned her the respect of her fellow tribe members. In the end, she was declared the winner by a vote of 5 to 2. Mili had survived the Solomon Islands and claimed the title of Sole Survivor.
