Huron-Bruce MPP Lisa Thompson wants to continue gaining investment, championing farmers in 2020

Huron-Bruce MPP Lisa Thompson says there is plenty to look forward to in 2020.

Thompson said one of her main goals is to ensure that Huron-Bruce remains at the table when it comes to investments.

"Be it in infrastructure, green stream projects or recreational projects and also making sure that we continue to prove that rural Ontario can lead by example."

Thompson also said she's very proud that the new Huron-Perth Health Team will be among the first handful of the province's new approved healthcare organizations. She added she wants to continue to champion the riding's agricultural interests and ensure farmer's voices are heard.

"This particular industry had been ignored for far too long, and it's time that they can have confidence that they have a government that is listening and acting now."
