Locally our MP, Irene Mathyssen, and the NDP have been busy making a difference right here in London. Organizations like My Sister’s Place, the Housing Registry, and several others were facing layoffs and closures until Irene Mathyssen, our Member of Parliament, forced the Conservatives to deliver the promised funding. Irene has also successfully delivered $17 million in federal infrastructure funding to our riding, and $1.98 million specifically for recreation infrastructure improvements.
