Ontario's firefighters are second to none. Every day, they put their lives on the line for us. They suit up and run straight into danger. I'm honoured to welcome the first endorsement from @opffa in nearly 15 years and their first ever for our PC team. Together, we'll protect Ontario.
.@fordnation and our @OntarioPCParty know the risks firefighters take every single day. We are honoured to have their support so we can keep breaking down barriers and keep every single one of them, and our province safe.
Together, we can #ProtectOntario.
