McNaughton Pleased With New Position

Lambton-Kent Middlesex MPP and business owner Monte McNaughton will now focus on a topic close to his heart.

Under new leader Patrick Brown, McNaughton will serve as Economic Development Critic for the Ontario PC's. With McNaughton owning a lumber and autoparts family business, he says he's pleased with his new role.

"I'll be bringing ideas forward on how to build a stronger economy locally, to create more jobs whether that's in the small business sector, agribusiness or manufacturing," he says.

In addition to economic development, McNaughton is also serving as critic for employment and infrastructure.
