A message from Andrea Horwath
Dear friends,
I'm running for premier because now is the time for change for the better.
It's time for something completely different.
People are feeling cynical about Ontario politics today. After 15 years of Liberal government, families are feeling squeezed, services are being cut and people are working harder but not getting ahead. After decades of switching between Liberal and Conservative premiers, things just seem to go from bad to worse.
It's time to stop settling.
Let's replace cynicism with hope. Let's have a government that listens. That gets it. That solves problems instead of creating them.
Let's make drug and dental coverage a reality for every last Ontarian. Let's make university and college, hydro bills, and child care all more affordable for everyone. Let's invest in services like transit and affordable housing. Let's make the big changes our health care system needs to cut the wait times and end hallway medicine.
Let's get it done.
