St. Catharines Candidate Speaks Out After Video of Sign Theft Emerges

St. Catharines candidate Jennie Stevens says lawn sign stealing has been an ongoing issue in her re-election campaign.

St. Catharines NDP candidate Jennie Stevens is speaking out after video evidence emerged of a resident stealing a campaign sigh from the lawn of a local supporter. 

Stevens says this has been an ongoing issue, but it won't put a damper on her re-election campaign. 

“I’m proud of the work my team has been doing during this campaign,” she says. “The disrespectful actions of a few individuals will not deter me. I will continue getting to the doors to speak about the issues that are important to the people of St. Catharines.”

Stealing campaign signs is a criminal offence, and Stevens says her team has been in contact with authorities. 

Stevens is running for re-election in the June 2nd provincial election against Ryan Madill of the Liberal Party, Sal Sorrento from the Progressive Conservatives and the Green Party's Michele Brandiff.
