NEWS RELEASE
ROSE ZACHARIAS CAMPAIGN
*************************
Last night, Rose Zacharias was joined by 100 local volunteers, stakeholders, family and friends at the Crazy Fox Bistro in Barrie to officially launch her campaign as the Ontario Liberal candidate for Barrie-Springwater-Oro-Medonte. 

“Over 55,000 people in Barrie don’t have a family doctor, and more are at risk of being de-rostered as doctors retire. The Ontario Liberal plan will give everyone a family doctor within four years, because real leaders fix health care,” said Zacharias. 

Volunteers in Barrie-Springwater-Oro-Medonte are connecting with a thousand voters every day by knocking on doors and talking on the phone, and are hearing that people are upset about this unnecessary election while the U.S. is imposing 25 per cent tariffs. 

“Donald Trump has declared economic war on our workers, our jobs, our factories and our people. In the face of such a devastating threat, we need a premier who puts our people first,” said Zacharias.
