THUNDER BAY – POLITICS – Christy Radbourne is seeking the Thunder Bay-Rainy River riding nomination. While in the last election Radbourne ran as a Green Party candidate, this time out she is seeking the nomination as a Liberal. Her decision was posted on her Facebook page.
Radbourne wrote: “I am posting tonight to announce that after much deliberation I will be seeking the Liberal Party Nomination in the Thunder Bay-Rainy River riding for the 2019 Federal election.
“There are many reasons for this, but it boils down to the opportunity to serve the community in a broader fashion and support a platform that I believe will help move our community and Canada forward. My positions and beliefs align with the Liberal platform and I also believe that I can bring added voice to issues I am passionate about, including the environment and climate change, sustainable communities, relationships with our Indigenous peoples and nations, improved infrastructure, and the continued protection of our healthcare system. You already know I am passionate about public education and would continue to represent that position even at the Federal level.”
