Northwestern Ontario will continue to have the same number of federal ridings, but the number of constituents in Thunder Bay-Superior North is growing.
“I am very fortunate to have been doing this role as Indigenous Services Minister for the last number of years, which has given me actually some relationships in those communities,” said Thunder Bay-Superior North MP Patty Hajdu. “Should I be lucky to be re-elected [in the next election], [I come into the new role] with those existing relationships in those communities and an understanding of what life might be like in some of those remote communities.
Hajdu added that there remains an ongoing challenge of travel in and out of remote communities without road access. She feels to be an effective representative, one has to visit communities to meet members on the ground.“The North requires a specific focus and a specific level of representation. To spread that representation out too thinly would be doing a huge disservice to Northern Ontario.
