Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visiting Kemptville and Brockville today

A federal by-election will be held on Monday, December 3rd, 2018, in the electoral district of Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes (Ontario) to fill a vacancy in the House of Commons.

The by-election is being held to replace the seat of Leeds-Grenville Member of Parliament Gord Brown, who died unexpectedly on May 2nd, 2018.

Justin Trudeau, Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada, will join by-election candidate Mary Jean McFall in Leeds—Grenville—Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes in Kemptville and Brockville today.

Other candidates in the Leeds-Grenville federal by-election are Michael Barrett, Michelle Taylor and Lorraine Rekmans.

“Justin Trudeau and I are the only team that has a positive plan to strengthen the middle class, stand up for local jobs and agriculture industries, and provide real help for families and seniors in our region,” said Mary Jean McFall. “Real change is working for Canadian families, and we can’t afford to let Andrew Scheer’s Conservatives take us back to the failed policies of Stephen Harper – policies that left too many families in our region falling behind.”

Trudeau is expected to meet with Mary Jean McFall at Geronimo's Coffeehouse, located at 146 Prescott Street in Kemptville at 2:45 p.m.

Later, Trudeau and McFall will be at Richard's Coffeehouse at 234 King Street West in Brockville around 4 p.m.
