Minister of Rural Affairs, Lisa Thompson, dedicated much of 2024 to addressing the needs of rural Ontario, visiting communities across the province to gather feedback and strengthen provincial support.
As 2025 begins, she reflects on her work and looks ahead to continued progress for rural residents, speaking to PtboToday.ca about the ongoing government audit in rural Ontario.
Thompson, along with her parliamentary assistant, traveled extensively throughout rural Ontario in 2024 to connect with local municipalities and identify key priorities. Looking to the future, she emphasized their continued efforts.
As Thompson moves into 2025, she remains focused on supporting rural communities and is eager to see the results of ongoing initiatives.
