On June 2nd, 2022, Ontarians will head to the polls. Until then, provincial party leaders and their candidates canvas their regions to grab voter attention and earn their votes.
The past few years showed the need for thoughtful and proactive policy that addresses the province’s economic, societal and infrastructure needs while addressing the pressing climate crisis. As the pandemic carries on, Ontarians are looking to government to provide solutions to the ongoing health crisis, while preparing us for future needs and events.
As a non-partisan advocacy body in Ontario for all engineers, we are happy to see numerous engineers put their names forward and campaign for a seat at Queen’s Park. Having engineers in Government and Cabinet will amplify the voices of the profession and put experts in the driving seat to solve society’s major issues.
