Radio Waterloo spoke with the candidates for the Waterloo riding as the 2025 Ontario provincial election, scheduled for February 27 draws closer.
We’ll be releasing a series of four pieces, each highlighting our interview with one of the candidates. We’ve included the Ontario Liberal, NDP, Green and New Blue parties. The Ontario Progressive Conservative party did not respond to repeated requests for an interview.
Today’s piece features the Green Party of Ontario candidate for the Waterloo riding, Shefaza Esmail.
Esmail shared her thoughts on the top issues in Waterloo, how she and her party plan to address them, what the tariff threats coming from the United States could mean for this community and her party’s stance on addressing the tariffs.
