The candidates vying for the Etobicoke Lakeshore provincial riding are PC Christine Hogarth, health care worker Lee Fairclough running for the Liberal Party, Rozhen Asrani of the Ontario NDP and Sean NcClocklin, of the Green Party.
Asrani said on her website that after moving to Mimico with her wife in 2021, she became President of the Mimico Residents Association, advocating for local issues like responsible development and infrastructure improvements.
Motivated by the lack of effective leadership on key community challenges, Rozhen believes the area deserves strong leadership and real change.
