NDP Candidate for Oakville Riding information
So to keep you informed here are the names, political affiliations, campaign office links and party platforms.
Some information was not available at the time of this post; however, each riding office was contacted. There is at least one link for each party in each riding. The Liberal and the Progressive Conservative organizations indicated that their platforms are not available, but will be released at a later date.
Next week, the Oakville Chamber of Commerce will be holding an all Candidates meeting, and that information will be posted. In addition, the Region has put forth questions and the answers will also be posted. Oakville News has done interviews with several of the candidates already, and hope to have that wrapped up soon.
However, this doesn't preclude you from asking questions and seeking information. During elections there is a tremendous amount of rhetoric with some times little substance. Be an informed voter. What things really matter to you and effect your life, and the lives of your family?
The names of candidates are listed by their last name in alphabetical ordered. Oakville News does not endorse any candidate or political party. Having the facts allows voters to make their own decision.
