“For the past 34 years as our riding boundaries evolved, it has been my incredible privilege to represent people in Wellington, Waterloo and Halton in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario,” Arnott wrote. “I have always sought to make a positive difference at Queen’s Park and be worthy and deserving of my constituents' trust.”
While Ontario’s next fixed election date isn’t until June 2026, Arnott said he is committed to serving his constituents to the “very best” of his ability while also fulfilling his responsibilities as the house speaker at Queen’s Park. “And finally, to all my constituents, those who supported me , thank you for your encouragement, your feedback and your advice. No MPP does their job in isolation. It is only through ongoing interaction and communication with individual residents, local municipal Councils, and community organizations that MPPs can give our Ridings the representation they deserve,” Arnott added.
