Scott Simser has been selected as the Green Party of Ontario provincial candidate for Carleton-Mississippi Mills.
“My thinking evolved,” said the 45-year-old. “The Green Party is new and has exciting ideas; I’ve always had a passion for the environment.”
He said he thinks it’s important to get a number of Green Members of Provincial Parliament (MPP) in at Queen’s Park.
“Queen’s Park needs a shake-up,” he said. “It needs the Green Party to be there. In some way the people have not been satisfied with these governments in the past (the Conservatives, Liberals and NPD) so they should give the Green Party a chance.”
Simser, who grew up in Kanata north, living there for 19 years before moving to Toronto, now resides in Katimavik with his wife and three children. He holds a bachelor of administration from the University of Ottawa, a MBA from the University of Toronto and is currently taking three courses at the University of Ottawa.
Simser, who was born with a hearing impairment, said his main priorities are the environment, the economy and a more decentralized government.
