Essex MPP Anthony Leardi got his job back as Member of Provincial Parliament in February and now he has his other roles as well.
It was announced last week through a press release from Leardi’s office that he has been re-appointed to his roles as Deputy Government House Leader and Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Health.
The Deputy Government House Leader assists the Government House Leader, who’s main job is to plan the government’s agenda to pass through the complex procedures that govern the Ontario Legislative Assembly, the press release explained.
“The rules of the Legislative Assembly are similar to the rules in a courtroom,” said Leardi. “There are rules of debate, procedure, objections, and timing. My job is to know the rules and act, or react, when necessary. It’s like being in a courtroom trial.”
In addition to the job of Deputy Government House Leader, Leardi will also continue acting as the Parliamentary Assistant to Minister of Health Sylvia Jones.
“My main job is to stand in for the Minister of Health during Question Period when the Minister cannot be there in person,” the PC MPP stated.
Leardi’s appointments come directly from Premier Doug Ford.
“Now more than ever, our team of parliamentary assistants is ready to support our government’s mandate to protect Ontario and build a stronger and more competitive economy that can withstand whatever comes our way,” said Ford.
