SIMCOE NORTH NEW BLUE PARTY CANDIDATE MARK DOURIS

CANDIDATE NAME: Mark Douris

RIDING: Simcoe North

PARTY: New Blue Party of Ontario

AGE: 31

OCCUPATION: Sales and marketing

RESIDES IN: Orillia

PAST POLITICAL EXPERIENCE: I am new to politics. In light of the current political climate where the ruling class is out of touch with its citizens, I felt it was my civic duty to step up and run as a candidate for the New Blue Party.

HOW WOULD YOU GRADE THE PROVINCE'S COVID-19 RESPONSE AND WHY? Grade — F. The Ford government used a one-size-fits-all solution in response to COVID-19. This

response completely ignored the fact that the potential risks when infected varied depending on a number of differing factors (age, immune compromised, etc.). It has led to irreparable damage to children's education, caused a significant increase in fatal opioid overdoses, and spawned a mental health crisis throughout the entire population.

IF ELECTED, I PLEDGE TO: Give the great people of Simcoe North a voice at Queen's Park. I will listen to the concerns of my constituents and use that to best represent their interests.

My job will be to represent the best interests of my constituents at Queen's Park, not 'do as I am told', as some MPPs do.
