Greater Sudbury mayoral candidate Ron Leclair, who has dubbed himself the “The People's Mayor,” said he has a good reason for giving the mayoral debates a hard pass.

“The constant back and forth bickering between mayoral candidates goes nowhere,” he said.

“I speak to people face-to-face daily, to hear for myself what changes people want to see being made.”

He invites people to visit his Facebook page for more information about his platform.

Read the full text of Leclair's release below:

For those who question my reasoning for not attending debates; I can honestly state that I do not believe they resolve issues; but rather confuse the constituents. 

The constant back and forth bickering between Mayoral Candidates, goes nowhere. I speak to people face to face daily, to hear for myself what changes people want to see being made.

I would have attended the Meet and Greet Candidates night at the Monte Vista Golf Course on Oct 10, 2018, if I have been invited. 

I’d rather attend these Meet and Greets, and speak with the people directly face to face, than squabbling with other Mayoral Candidates and not having issues resolved.

For more information on where I stand concerning the Debate Questions, you are welcome to visit my Facebook page; ronleclairformayor.
 
Sincerely, 
“The Peoples’ Mayor”
