Candidate Profile: Judith Monteith-Farrell

Another election run for Judith Monteith-Farrell in the riding of Thunder Bay-Atikokan.

The NDP Incumbent was first elected in 2018 as a Member of Provincial Parliament, but she is hoping for another successful campaign.

“I am proud that I have been able to really listen and get a handle on what people in the riding need,” said Monteith-Farrell. “I am really excited about being part of a Northern team. We have eight members from the North, and that is always exciting because we bring that perspective to Queen’s Park.”

Farrell feels there is an obvious need for mental health and addictions services in Northwestern Ontario, “What we have in our community are people that need our help and we need to move forward to help everyone have a better life. That involves housing, health care and ensuring that everyone has enough money to live on with good jobs and opportunities.”

In the last provincial election, Monteith-Farrell defeated Liberal candidate Bill Mauro by just 81 votes.

Election day is Thursday, June 2nd.
