Windsor-Essex is an economic engine for our province.
Today, I led a roundtable with members of the Windsor-Essex Chamber of Commerce to discuss the challenges businesses are facing in this period of economic uncertainty. From trade and tariffs to pressures on local industries, we focused on practical solutions to protect businesses, support growth, and strengthen the economy.
Congratulations to the Chamber on recently marking 150 years of leadership and advocacy for the region.
🎙️ Something new is coming to the Windsor-Essex business community!

Thank you to All In Content for their support in the creation of this podcast.
Windsor is at the heart of Canada’s trade challenges. Tariffs have hit hard—autos, suppliers, manufacturing. I met with local leaders today to hear how these pressures are affecting workers and businesses. We’re listening—and acting.
As PM @MarkJCarney said earlier today, Canada has the strongest access to the U.S. market. We’re matching U.S. moves under CUSMA while working to secure fair outcomes for our economy.
It was an honour to join Minister Lecce to announce the expedited Lakeshore to Windsor transmission line. This critical infrastructure investment will unlock jobs in the manufacturing and greenhouse sectors and allow for new homes to be built in our communities. @ONgov
@WERCofC President and CEO, @RyanDonally, attended an important announcement in Barrie regarding the building of two new transmission lines and two major upgrades to meet growing demand.
This includes a new line from Windsor to Lakeshore.

Together we are strong!
Great piece by Dave Waddell on the profound impact that @_investwe has in our economy. When one community wins, the entire region benefits. Great work!
