Liberal candidate Knight says election is about who people want to represent them in Ottawa

The federal Liberal candidate for Perth-Wellington says we are at a point where we need to decide how the post recovery from COVID-19 will present itself.

Brendan Knight says the election will allow voters to decide what direction they want Canada to go as we get close to the end of the pandemic.

He says, locally, voters will get to choose who they want to represent them in Ottawa.

Knight says the arts and culture sector is one area that needs to be well supported at a federal level.

“It’s going to be a long time before we get back to a pre-pandemic state and that’s going to need some flexibility for the riding.”

Also running in the September 20th election are Conservative candidate John Nater, NDP candidate Kevin Kruchkywich and People’s Party of Canada candidate Wayne Baker.

We will be profiling all of the declared candidates this week.
