Jill Andrew is the Member of Provincial Parliament for Toronto St. Paul's, a riding she has held for the NDP since 2018. She's the first woman, and the first non Liberal to represent the riding since its creation in 1999.
When asked to run for the riding Jill had doubts about whether she would be able to do it, but in the end it was her interest in issues such as education and healthcare, as well as the support from friends, family and other elected officials that lead her to say yes.
Jill who is a strong advocate for women and the BIPOC and LGBQ2 communities has some tips on how to get involved and making your community better for everyone.
