Eric Melillo has been acclaimed as the Conservative candidate for the Kenora Riding for the next federal election.
Melillo was the surprise winner in the last federal election in the Kenora Riding in October of 2019, defeating incumbent Liberal Bob Nault and Rudy Turtle from the NDP.
In accepting the nomination Melillo says he will continue to work for his constituents.
“A Conservative government will support Canadian workers, create opportunities in the North, and bring accountability and integrity back to Parliament,” state Melillo.
“I am proud to be a part of this team, and I look forward to continuing to be a voice for the Kenora riding.”
A federal election is widely expected this spring.
