Quotes
Judith Monteith-Farrell, NDP MPP for Thunder Bay-Atikokan
"JoAnne is exactly who we need on our NDP team. As an educator, she has fought for funding and support for our public schools after four years of cuts under the Ford Conservatives. With JoAnne on our team we'll help make life more affordable by regulating the price of gas, and we'll take action on our doctor shortage. The Liberals and Conservatives left our hospitals in the Northwest at risk of closing their emergency rooms because of a shortage of doctors and nurses. Together with JoAnne, we can invest in hiring doctors and nurses and start fixing what the Liberals and Conservatives broke."
JoAnne Formanek Gustafson, NDP candidate for Kenora-Rainy River
"As an educator I know that our communities need investment in our schools and our children. During the pandemic, I saw that the Ford Conservatives refused to invest in keeping our kids and staff safe. And we know the Del Duca Liberals are not the answer. They closed schools across the province. Our communities deserve so much better than that. I am committed to making sure that Kenora-Rainy River gets the investments needed for schools, hospitals, and affordable housing. It's time to make life more affordable for families who are paying record high prices in the Northwest. Together with the NDP, we will cover the costs of dental care, mental health care, and medications. Together we can fix what's broken, and we can invest in what matters most."
