NDP leader Jagmeet Singh touring northern constituency this week
New Democratic Party Leader Jagmeet Singh was in La Ronge today as part of a short tour of the Desnethé-Missinippi-Churchill River constituency.
“I want folks to know the north is very important to me [and] that Georgina Jolibois is an incredible member of our team,” he said. “We are going to fight for people. No matter what, we’re going to make sure they’re always put first. We’ve seen too much prioritizing of the powerful and the wealthy over everyday people.”
Singh began his tour of the riding Monday with a visit to Stanley Mission, before spending today in La Ronge with stops at the Scattered Site Outreach Program and Northlands College. A meet and greet with local elders and residents will be held at 4 p.m. at the La Ronge Senior Citizens Club. Jolibois and Singh will both be in Meadow Lake Wednesday for another community event at 132 Centre Street at 12 p.m.
