Q1: How will you incorporate accessibility and the development of a working relationship and communication with First Nations as a part of your riding operations?
Mary Kozorys (NDP): It’s vitally important for the MPP to work closely with First Nations. I will regularly set up meetings with band councils. Chief and council can contact me – personally – any time, day or night. I will work alongside First Nations to make life more affordable and to work to create jobs.

Q1: How will you incorporate accessibility and the development of a working relationship and communication with First Nations as a part of your riding operations?
Sarah Campbell (NDP): I will make sure that I travel into every community and meet with chiefs and councils. I will meet with Elders and listen closely to their advice. It’s important for me to be able to celebrate with people, and talk with people at community gatherings, at harvest feasts and at powwows when I am welcomed to attend.

What is the process?
The Premier of Ontario informs the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario that he or she would like to call an election.
The Chief Electoral Officer of Ontario then prepares the writs of election. The Lieutenant Governor signs the writs. Ontario is divided into 107 specific areas called electoral districts and a writ is sent to the Returning Officer in each electoral district.
