"To build a strong NDP that will be the best option for Ontario residents, we need leaders like Erica Braunovan working effectively and efficiently in our communities. Her experience and connections will serve Ottawa Centre very well."
Jennifer McKenzie

"I know Erica is the candidate to lead the Ottawa Centre NDP to Queen's Park in the next election. Whether in her role as a school trustee, social worker, addictions counsellor, or as a mother of two, she has always demonstrated immense dedication to the welfare and well-being of others. Putting Erica on the Ottawa Centre ballot is putting the people of her community first."

Kerry Beckett
LGBTTQ+ Activist
"Erica has long been an ally for our LGBTTQ+ friends, a fact to which I can attest from our time together canvassing for Bank St. to be officially recognized as the Village. Having worked with her many times now, I can say she is the most consistently dependable person I know. Everyone can consider her an ally. Whether you're a person with a disability, a student, a refugee or just someone who calls Ottawa Centre home — you deserve a better ally in the provincial government and Erica will be that."
