TRILLIUM TALK: Driving with Stiles on the NDP campaign bus

Every weekday during the Ontario election campaign, one of our legislative reporters from The Trillium will break down all the big developments you need to know about

Welcome to a special edition of Trillium Talk, your must-see briefing from Village Media’s team of journalists at the Ontario Legislature. 

Although this segment usually runs on Sunday mornings, we're ramping things up now that Doug Ford has officially triggered a provincial election.

Every weekday during the campaign, Village Media's Scott Sexsmith will sit down with one of our staffers at The Trillium to talk about the big developments of the day. 

On the show today is reporter Jack Hauen, who is following the NDP's Marit Stiles on the lone campaign bus being used by party leaders in this year's election. (Doug Ford, Bonnie Crombie and Mike Schreiner are travelling by other means this time around).

One of Stiles' stops today was at a union hall in Windsor, where she promised to protect autoworkers from U.S. President Donald Trump's looming tariffs. Outside, Hauen protected himself from the rain as he joined us for a chat.

As for the other leaders, Ford is in Niagara Region today, Crombie stopped in Scarborough and Schreiner paid a visit to the riding of Bruce—Grey—Owen Sound.

Check out our site later this afternoon for a full wrap of today's news from the campaign trail.
