My name is Erin Patterson, and I am honoured to be the candidate for Barrie-Springwater-Oro Medonte district for the Ontario Libertarian Party.
I have lived in this riding my entire life, growing up rurally in Springwater township. I have the best memories of spending time on my grandparent's farm with my cousins. I am fortunate to now share those experiences with my children as we live on my grandparent's homestead and have a little hobby farm where our children can enjoy the lifestyle and freedoms it has to offer. Family and community are very important in my eyes.
I have a very strong love for all animals, and I volunteer as a board member for MTM Conservation. As a Herbalist, I love spending time out exploring the different trails in Springwater. My small business has helped me meet so many wonderful people.
I am running as a candidate because I feel our government has lost sight of what their purpose is and is no longer serving its people. I feel there needs to be accountability, and it's beyond time they started listening to what the people need and want. I feel government spending needs to be focused on the needs of Canadians, and Healthcare needs to be a top priority. It's time for change.
Our current popular "four party" options have proven in my eyes they do not have Canadian's best interests as their number one priority. I have recently discovered the Ontario Libertarian Party and strongly agree with their core values, especially personal rights and freedoms.
In this upcoming Provincial election, you have another choice and I would be proud to be your voice!
