Ontario MPP Amanda Simard speaks in the legislature in Toronto.
TORONTO — A former Progressive Conservative lawmaker who quit the government caucus to protest cuts to francophone services is joining the Ontario Liberal Party. Amanda Simard made the announcement today at the Ontario legislature with the party’s interim leader John Fraser. Simard was elected in 2018 at the age of 29 to represent the largely French-speaking eastern Ontario riding of Glengarry-Prescott-Russell.

They can still all fit in one van 😂
