New Democratic Party
Party Leader: Jagmeet Singh
In every corner of the country, families are worried about jobs, the health of our loved ones, and the public services that everyone counts on. The past 18 months have shown that Canadians can confront any challenge – when we have to, when we choose to, and when we come together. It’s also shown us that thanks to the decisions of Liberal and Conservative governments, many of the supports that we rely on just aren’t there when we need them. If we want different results, we need to make different choices. What we need now is the courage to act together. And that is exactly what New Democrats offer to Canadians. Ready for Better is our vision for what we believe is possible. And it is our commitment to the real results that we’re going to deliver for Canadians.

We'll expand bus and train service in the Northwest to connect more communities. We are committed to ensuring access to French-language services in Northern Ontario. We’ll ensure Laurentian University—and all Northern and francophone universities—can serve families across Northern Ontario. We’ll work towards true reconciliation by finally bringing in a new relationship with Indigenous peoples based on respect, appropriate, permanent funding for services, and righting historic wrongs like the lack of clean water in communities such as Neskantaga, which have been ignored by the Liberals. And we’ll work hard to make Canada a climate leader with a new deal that creates thousands of jobs, one that includes science-based emissions targets, a national freshwater strategy, and investments in climate resiliency and emergency management for the North. We will support Indigenous communities to establish programs that increase their ability to fight forest fires and manage climate change. We'll support immigrant and refugees who want to settle, live and work in the North with special attention paid to French-speaking New Canadians. New Democrats know that Liberals and Conservatives aren’t working for Northern Ontario. We’re ready to fight for the people of Northern Ontario.
