HAMILTON — The Green Party of Ontario is proud to announce that Syam Chandra has been nominated as its candidate for Hamilton West-Ancaster-Dundas ahead of the 2022 provincial election.

Syam has spent years in the education sector developing enrichment programs, leading global initiatives to guide students, and researching problems affecting education today.
