NAME: Ibrahim Daniyal

RIDING: Pickering-Uxbridge

PARTY: Ontario Liberal party

OCCUPATION: Financial adviser

IF ELECTED, I PLEDGE TO: rebuild what has made our province strong: education, health care, and public services that support working families. Through the Ontario Liberal party's fully costed platform, I am promising families a better, fairer, and more affordable future with economic dignity — the choice is yours.

NAME: Elizabeth Tallis

RIDING: Pickering-Uxbridge

PARTY: New Blue Party of Ontario

OCCUPATION: Mortgage agent/chief of operations at law firm

IF ELECTED, I PLEDGE TO: advocate for the people instead of being a career politician like Doug Ford who promoted the harshest COVID-lockdown measures in the world. I am committed to promote a real Conservative platform, including fiscal responsibility and transparency, and (the) elimination of cultural Marxism. I understand the market and the collapsing of the economy is not a good sign. I, too, am a consumer, and I am experiencing the same struggles the people are having with increased gas prices and overall increased household and grocery items. I promise to take your voices back to the legislature and defend and fight for all.

NAME: Julia Rondinone

RIDING: Pickering-Uxbridge

PARTY: Green Party of Ontario

OCCUPATION: University student/intern

IF ELECTED I PLEDGE TO: integrate the participation of youth in politics, as our opinions are essential in shaping the future of this world. While I have a focus in youth representation, I will also ensure that people of all ages, ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations, and gender identities are included in decision-making as well. I plan to implement sustainable solutions to the climate problems we face and I recognize that the time to act is now against this crisis. We cannot afford to wait. Speaking on behalf of people, representing their concerns and passions fuelled me to be a candidate for my community.

NAME: Lisa Robinson

RIDING: Pickering-Uxbridge

PARTY: Ontario Party

OCCUPATION: Paralegal

IF ELECTED I PLEDGE TO: bring back the true meaning of public servant. A public servant works alongside elected government and works for its citizens, to whom they are responsible, not a political party. Together, we will put the needs of Ontarians first. We will protect our most vulnerable, the environment, and the livelihood of small business owners. Improve LTC (long-term care), health care, and our education system. Support parental rights, and choice. We believe in family, faith, truth, transparency, freedom, and fiscal responsibility, and will not support division, mandates, lockdowns, or digital ID. Protect your family's future, vote Lisa Robinson, MPP.
