Stiles promises to fight for good jobs in Timmins and stand up for the North

TIMMINS — Marit Stiles, Leader of the Ontario NDP, pledged to stand up for Timmins and fight for good jobs in the face of tariff threats

“After almost 7 years of Doug Ford’s Conservatives, life is harder here in Timmins. Wait times are longer, doctors are hard to come by and there are not enough supports for people struggling with addiction. Timmins deserves leadership that will take on these challenges – from health care to highways to housing.

“New Democrats are ready to get to work, with a new deal for the North that will get government focused on what really matters: building homes, making highways safer, and making life more affordable for you.”

“In the face of real threats to Northern jobs from Donald Trump’s tariffs, we need to stand strong. But while Doug Ford sees an opportunity for himself by threatening an early election, New Democrats see an opportunity to pull together as a province and a country. We’re ready to stand with you and fight for every single job.”
