Opposition Leader Yvonne Jones will be meeting with various groups, municipal councils, unions and concerned citizens in central Newfoundland from Tuesday, February 17^th to Thursday, February 19^th.

“There are many concerns in central Newfoundland related to the mill closure, health care shortages and infrastructure needs,” said Ms. Jones. “I am looking forward to meeting with groups and individuals in this region of our province to hear their issues first-hand. It is expected that the House of Assembly will be opening in a few weeks and this will be an opportunity for people to educate me on local issues that need to be brought forward to the provincial legislature. This type of dialogue is important to ensure we are able to effectively hold government accountable for their actions, or lack thereof, on important issues directly affecting people in various regions of our province.”
