“I’m incredibly grateful to have earned the trust of our London community,” said Kernaghan. “We all deserve to have a good life, with a good home, reliable healthcare, and a job that pays the bills. It’s high time we had a progressive government that stepped up to address the housing and homelessness crisis in our city – a government that works for all of us. I’m feeling energized to keep building on this momentum and I’m excited to have the people of London North Centre on my team”.
