Sault Ste. Marie incumbent touts 'record-breaking investments, while opponents call for change
CBC
With the finish line in sight, the candidates in Sault Ste. Marie squared off in one last Zoom debate Thursday night.
And we saw the familiar game of the challengers calling for change and the incumbent trumpeting about all the money he's brought to town.
Terry Sheehan said it's been a great six years for Sault Ste. Marie since he was elected Liberal MP.
He made several mentions of the "record-breaking" $750 million in federal funding he's brought to the riding.
That includes $420 million for transitioning the Algoma steel mill to electric furnaces, which Sheehan says will protect "the jobs of today and the jobs of tomorrow" at the city's larger employer.
"It's unclear again whether the other parties are going to support that or not," he shot at his opponents.
Conservative Sonny Spina didn't bite on that, but did say the big spending Liberals are driving Canada toward financial ruin.
