“The message is clear. Only Doug Ford and I can get it done for Northern Ontario. We have a five-point plan to rebuild Ontario’s economy, working for workers, building highways and key infrastructure, keeping costs down, and plan to stay open. That’s what folks are asking for. That’s our five-point plan, and we are looking forward to continuing with that in the campaign.”
