Voters in Lambton-Kent-Middlesex go to the polls for a provincial by-election in a little more than a week now.
When it comes to the key issue of affordability, they seem to be getting an earful from voters.
“The common theme is health care, education, affordable housing,” said Cathy Burghardt-Jesson while knocking on doors in Mount Brydges Tuesday. “We’re an agriculture community. There’s certainly concerns out of change of land policies.”
The former Middlesex warden and current mayor of Lucan-Biddulph is the Liberal candidate in the by-election. She’s hoping to break through in what has been a PC stronghold for the past couple of elections, after former PC cabinet minister Monte McNaughton stepped away from politics last year.
Hoping to fill McNaughton’s seat in the Doug Ford government is PC candidate Steve Pinsonneault, a Chatham-Kent councillor.
