124.

That is how many electoral constituencies (or "ridings") are in provincial politics in Ontario.

And that is how many people it will take for us to change the course of politics in Ontario.

One brave Ontarian to run in every single riding.

That is our goal.

We have come so far.

But we cannot stop now.

Don't listen to the naysayers.

No matter how many letters come after their name.

No matter how many followers they have on social media.

When they say it's over.

When they say we can't recover.

You tell them to bite their tongue.

Because we're not done.

Ontarians in 94 ridings have already stepped forward to serve.

That includes Belinda.

And it includes me.

There are only 30 more ridings left to fill.

The second application deadline is in four days on TUESDAY, MARCH 1st, at 5pm.

Candidates are not expected to leave their jobs to run.

They just have to be willing to put their name on the ballot.

And be willing to stand up for what is right.

With courage.

With conviction.

To give hope to those who feel hopeless.

To offer an opportunity to those who have lost so much.

To tell Ontarians about our platform - The New Blueprint - which will show the road to prosperity after years of chaos.

And to believe that the best is yet to come.

Leader, New Blue Party of Ontario
