Election Coverage_280The NDP candidate in Nipissing-Timiskaming Kathleen Jodouin has received an endorsement.

It comes from the North Bay and District Labour Council.

President Henri Giroux says the NDP is the only party that can clean up 9 years of Conservative corruption and economic mismanagement.

Meantime, the Conservative candidate in Nipissing-Timiskaming Jay Aspin says he’s pleased with the conclusion of the Trans Pacific Partnership trade deal.

He says Canada will have access to an additional 800 Million people and that means long term economic growth and well paying jobs  because there will be more markets for Canadian businesses.

He says the agreement means Canadian goods will cost less which will increase the number of exports and the cost of foreign goods will also come down.
