BRANTFORD, ON – Ron Fox, business leader and long-time community advocate, has been officially nominated as the Ontario Liberal candidate for Brantford—Brant.
“From a record affordability crisis that’s driven up the cost of living, to the family doctor shortage that’s left millions without access to primary care, Doug Ford has shown that he just can’t get it done for the people of Brantford—Brant.
“As a longtime community advocate with deep knowledge of his community, I know that Ron Fox is the representative that is needed to get Brantford—Brant back on track.
“Together, we’ll cut your taxes, make life affordable again and ensure that you and your family have access to the care that you need, when and where you need it. I’m delighted to announce that Ron is officially your Ontario Liberal candidate for Brantford—Brant!”
— Bonnie Crombie, Leader of Ontario’s Liberals
“Life feels unaffordable right now for many people in our community. Some people blame inflation, but when corporations are posting record profits on their earnings calls, that’s not inflation. That’s greed. And Doug Ford would rather take care of these large corporations, developers and insiders than everyday people.
“We need smaller class sizes in our schools and proper funding for our education system. Anything less than that is a failure to our children.
“Our health care workers take care of our families, they deserve to be treated like the heroes they are. Here in Brantford—Brant, we desperately need a new hospital. We need all levels of government working together to make that happen.
“We deserve better. Brantford—Brant deserves better. Together, with Bonnie Crombie’s team we will prioritize your family, make life more affordable for you, and fight for what matters most to you and your loved ones.”
