Marlene Spruyt nominated as Ontario Greens candidate in Lanark–Frontenac–Kingston

January 28, 2025

KINGSTON — Marlene Spruyt has been nominated as the Ontario Greens’ candidate in Lanark–Frontenac–Kingston.

Spruyt is a retired family and public health physician who is alarmed by how access to primary care in Ontario has progressively worsened over the past decade. She serves as the Ontario Greens’ Health Critic and was the party’s candidate in the 2022 election.

“Every person in Ontario, regardless of where they live, should have access to quality health care,” said Spruyt.

“The current crisis of caring facing our province is due to Doug Ford’s failure to invest in our healthcare system. With the Ontario Greens, I’m fighting to take better care of the people we love.”

“Marlene brings a wealth of first-hand medical experience to the Ontario Greens,” said Ontario Greens’ leader Mike Schreiner. “I know she’ll be a strong advocate for better health care in her community and across Ontario.”

Spruyt has lived most of her life in small rural communities around the province.
