Subject: Veteran MPP Jim Bradley named as Ontario housing minister

 

Veteran MPP Jim Bradley, who has served in the Ontario Legislature for more
than 30 years, has been named the new Minister of Municipal Affairs and
Housing in an Ontario cabinet shuffle announced this afternoon. Minister
Bradley replaces former Minister Gerretsen, who held the position
temporarily after the resignation last week of former Minister Jim Watson -
who left the cabinet to pursue election as the Mayor of Ottawa. 

 

At the top of the agenda for Minister Bradley will be completing work on
Ontario's long-term affordable housing strategy. Public consultations on the
strategy were held over six months last year, and the

hensive_ontario_housing_plan/> Wellesley Institute worked with the
<http://stableandaffordable.com/> Housing Network of Ontario to ensure a
strong voice for people and communities across Ontario.  The comprehensive
new housing plan is expected by June of 2010.
