AlexissQS enters the small stage installed in a public market in the city of Hamilton, in front of which was installed many benches, filled with supporters of the ONDP but also curious people who were passing.

Hello to all

Thank you all for being here today, not only to participate in the democratic exercise that we will be participating in over the next few days with our votes, but also to encourage the local farmers, merchants and artisans present in this market today.

Throughout the election campaign, my party and I have been travelling across Ontario. We have developed a comprehensive and calculated platform that offers many things to the people of Ontario. The Leader and the other candidates, in Ottawa, in Northern Ontario and of course here in Hamilton, have worked hard to ensure that we have a sound political plan. This platform is all about putting people first in provincial politics. To put people first

Throughout my political career, I have always tried, to the best of my ability, to serve the people of Ontario. This same goal is reflected in the deepest values of the New Democratic Party.

In politics, the goal is to never forget the people for whom we are doing this work. We must never forget who we represent. We must always aim to serve the people of Ontario to the best of our ability and with an eye to the future.

This platform is the culmination of that idea. This platform and this policy plan that I carry as an ONDP candidate is about putting people first.

People first, by dramatically increasing the capacity and efficiency of our health care system and ensuring better quality of service in our public health system.

People first, by modernizing the operation of our school system to better serve our students.

People first, by ensuring Ontario is prosperous for generations to come, including investments in key sectors that provide quality jobs while protecting our planet.

People first, by making Ontario a national and international leader in the fight against climate change and sustainable development.

People first, because the oNDP is the only party that offers a comprehensive plan that addresses the needs and issues of every region in Ontario. Because the NDPO is the only party proposing an ambitious infrastructure plan and promising the investments needed to reduce electricity bills, provide affordable housing for all, create quality jobs and ensure the sustainable development of Ontario's economy,

That's what this election is all about: Who do the parties work for?

ONDP puts people first.

The green and the conservative have joined forces to do the opposite.
