Others Say
Northern Ontario has always been the engine that helps drive Ontario's economy. From the Big Nickel in Sudbury to the vast opportunities in the Ring of Fire, our region has the people, the resources, and the ingenuity to power our future. Whether it's critical minerals, clean energy, electric vehicle manufacturing, forestry, or innovation, the North is ready to lead. What we've always needed is leadership that understands our potential and is prepared to get things done.
Having worked alongside Navdeep Bains when I served as Ontario's Minister of Energy, I've seen firsthand how he brings people together, attracts investment, and turns ambitious ideas into real results. He understands that completing projects like Highway 69 isn't just about asphalt, it's about connecting communities, improving safety, supporting industry, and creating long-term economic opportunities across the North.
Nav recognizes that when Northern Ontario succeeds, all of Ontario succeeds. He understands the importance of responsible resource development, building strong partnerships with Indigenous communities, creating good-paying jobs, and ensuring our young people can build their futures here at home instead of having to leave the North.
I believe Navdeep Bains has the experience, vision, and determination to unlock Northern Ontario's full economic potential and build a stronger Ontario for everyone. That's why I am proud to give him my support to become Ontario's next Premier.
I've known Navdeep for over 20 years, and as a Past President of the Ontario Liberal Party, I know what this party needs right now. We need a leader who will show up for our party members, do the hard work riding-by-riding, and give our organizers and grassroots volunteers the energy and the support they deserve! Navdeep is that leader. He has my full support.
The province is ready for a fresh start, and Ontarians don't have the patience for a long learning curve. We need a leader who can deliver from day one.That's why I'm backing Navdeep Bains. He has a proven record of driving our economy forward, securing major investments, and fostering the innovation that creates good-paying jobs. We need those kinds of results now more than ever. Navdeep has done it before, and he'll do it again as our next Premier. He's ready to lead, and I'm proud to stand with him.
I've known Nav for many years here in Mississauga, where were both raising our families and share a deep commitment to the community we call home. We know a better path forward is possible for all of us in this province, and that starts with great education and properly funded healthcare for all of us.. Navdeep Bains has the experience, determination, and compassion we need to build a stronger Ontario. I'm proud to support him
As a past Ontario Liberal candidate for Oakville North—Burlington, I am proud to endorse Navdeep Bains for Leader of the Ontario Liberal Party.
Nav cares deeply about Ontario's future and has the vision, experience, and leadership needed to get our province and our party back on track. As a former federal Cabinet Minister with significant private-sector experience and a proven track record as an accomplished organizer, he knows how to build strong teams, connect with voters, and win.
I am confident that Navdeep Bains is the right person to lead the Ontario Liberal Party into its next chapter, and I am proud to support him as our next leader.
I worked with Nav in Ottawa and saw firsthand the results he delivers. And my years on Kingston Council and as Mayor taught me something about leadership: Queen's Park needs a Premier who actually listens to communities, works as a partner with municipalities, and understands what people are up against. Strong leaders see the challenges every community faces, and seize the opportunities to move them forward. Nav gets it, and he gets it done. I'm proud to support Navdeep Bains and his vision for a stronger Ontario.
Francophone communities have played an important role in shaping Ontario, and their continued contributions will be essential to its future success.
Navdeep Bains understands that realizing our full potential means ensuring everyone has the opportunity to thrive. He is a leader who listens and brings people together, with the experience to build a more prosperous and inclusive economy that reflects the unique strengths and perspectives of communities across the province.
I'm proud to endorse him as the next Leader of the Ontario Liberal Party.
Ontario doesn't need a leader who's learning on the job. As a federal cabinet minister, Navdeep Bains steered Canada's innovation and industrial policy through the first Trump tariffs, backing Ontario's auto sector with real investment. I've spent my career in the legal and political trenches, and I know a tested leader when I one. Nav is tested. This is Ontario's moment, and he's ready to lead. That's why I'm backing him.
Shifts in the global economy and trade uncertainty are leaving border communities like Sault Ste. Marie feeling especially vulnerable. The world around us is changing fast, but Navdeep Bains has what it takes to turn the challenges we face into opportunities.
He is a strategic leader who knows how to build stronger, more competitive industries and create the conditions for good jobs and thriving communities. I saw his talent for bringing people together to solve complex problems when he was Innovation Minister and I was Mayor, and I am proud to stand with him again as he steps up for Ontario.
Too many people get into public life and forget where they come from. Navdeep Bains never did. He's brought Brampton and Windsor with him into every room he's walked into, and never lost sight of the people behind the politics. Ontarians know what that kind of leader looks like, and we need more of them.
With changing trade relationships, AI, and the rising cost of living, young people across Ontario are facing more uncertainty than ever. We're willing to work hard — we just want a fair shot to succeed. That's why I'm so excited Navdeep Bains is running to be our next leader and Premier. He has the real experience we need to create jobs and opportunity for my generation. He's all in, and I am too
After decades in municipal, provincial, and federal politics, I've learned that even though the problems change, the skills you need to succeed transfer across every level of government. That's why I know Navdeep Bains is the best choice for Ontario today. He earned the confidence of workers, businesses, and investors across Canada and around the world by delivering on some of our country's most important economic priorities. He's as solid as they come, and I know he'll earn the trust of Ontarians, too. I'm proud to give him my full support.
I have known Navdeep for a long time. I served with him in Ottawa when he was the federal Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, and I know him to be highly competent and widely respected. I consider it highly significant that he earned the same respect from the Science community, one where you are judged more by your ability to get things done than the eloquence of your speeches, or your ability to schmooze.
From Thunder Bay to the GTA, Ontarians share many of the same challenges in education, jobs, housing, and health care. What they don't share, however, are one-size-fits-all solutions.
I'm proud to support Navdeep Bains for Leader of the Ontario Liberal Party because of his track record and because he understands the right answers will come from communities themselves.
He is collaborative, experienced, and ready to get to work delivering practical solutions that reflect the diversity of our province.
I represented rural Eastern Ontario in the House of Commons for seven years. My father served the same communities before me. Between us, we've spent a lifetime listening to farmers, small business owners, and the mayors of small towns — and I know what it takes for a Premier to actually understand rural Ontario.
Navdeep Bains gets it. He shows up in our communities. He asks the right questions. He understands that rural Ontario isn't a backdrop for politicians — it's the backbone of this province. Our small towns, our family farms, and our rural entrepreneurs deserve a Premier who fights for them.
Nav will be that Premier.
I'm proud to endorse Navdeep Bains as the next Leader of the Ontario Liberal Party.
I learned during my time representing Davenport that progress starts with listening. The strongest leaders are the ones who see that every community has its own story, its own unique challenges, and its own hopes for the future. I am supporting Navdeep Bains because he's the most qualified person to lead Ontario forward, but also because he knows how to bring different voices together to get things done. Over the past few years, our government has lost touch with the people it's supposed to serve. I know Nav has been listening.
Our province needs experienced leadership that understands the realities families face, recognizes the opportunities they need to succeed, and knows how to deliver results.
Navdeep Bains brings that rare combination of working class roots and senior experience in government and business. That's why I'm proud to support him and the vision he has for building a stronger future for everyone all Ontarians.
From the Ottawa Valley to Kingston and communities across Eastern Ontario, we understand that winning starts with strong local teams and people who are willing to put in the work. That's why I'm supporting Nav. I've seen his work ethic firsthand, and he knows there are no shortcuts in this job. He's willing to roll up his sleeves, empower volunteers, and rebuild our party riding by riding and community by community. Nav understands that our path back to victory starts at the grassroots, and he's the leader who can bring our party together and build it back from the ground up.
There's a difference between leaders who want the title and leaders who want the work. Navdeep Bains is the second kind. Ontario has waited long enough for a government that actually delivers. After 19 years at Queen's Park and seven as Speaker of the Legislature, I've watched leaders perform under pressure. Nav has the character, the resilience, and the judgment we need. He has my full support.
I'm proud to endorse Navdeep Bains because I've seen the kind of leader he is. He's a true grassroots champion who listens to people and empowers those around him. He also brings the energy, experience, and determination our party needs to reconnect with Ontarians and rebuild for the future. I hope you'll join me in supporting him.
As a father, Nav has a deep understanding of what's at stake in Ontario today. For far too many young people, a stable career, an affordable home, and a fair chance to build a good life feel out of reach. As a tested leader, he has the experience and judgment to step in on day one and immediately get to work rebuilding Ontario into a place where hard work pays off again. This is personal for him, and I know he has the focus and discipline to deliver real results for Ontarians.
As Chief of the Ojibways of Onigaming First Nation I've seen firsthand what happens when government actually listens - and what happens when it doesn't. Real partnership with First Nations communities isn't a policy position. You either show up for it or you don't.
Navdeep Bains shows up. It was great to see him in Kenora. His experience working on the decisions that shape communities like ours, tells me he understands that good policy is built thru true partnership.That's the kind of leadership Ontario needs. And it's why I'm proud to stand with Nav.
Franco-Ontarians shouldn't have to compromise or switch languages just to access healthcare, the courts, or government services. Keeping French alive in daily life means fixing chronic staffing shortages, investing in French education, and defending our cultural institutions. I'm supporting Navdeep Bains because he understands that governing for every Ontarian means delivering for every community.
I'm proud to support Navdeep Bains because I've seen firsthand that rebuilding a political party starts at the grassroots. As a former President of the LPCO, I worked with Nav to help rebuild the federal Liberal Party, and I know he understands what it takes to listen to members, empower volunteers and earn support in communities. Ontario Liberals need a leader who has done that work before — and Nav has the experience and determination to do it again.
