Federal NDP leader met with local labour leaders, visited farmer’s market on Saturday
Federal NDP leader Jagmeet Singh was in Sudbury on Saturday as part of a brief tour of Northern Ontario.
He was accompanied at the farmer’s market by several area NDP politicians, including France Gélinas , Jamie West , Carol Hughes , Nadia Verrelli and Andréane Chenier . “Whether it's the cost of food, the cost of groceries, the cost of mortgage, rent, everything is going up, and I wanted to hear what that means for people in the north, and what the impact is on people here and then talk about some of the things that we can do to make it better,” he said.
“So things that weren't really as much of a concern in the past have now become really a big squeezing point,” Singh said.
