Peter Hillier — Toronto Upper Beaches

“As a neighbour and our MPP, Arthur has been very supportive of my work as Founder and Medical Director of the Canadian Centre for Refugee and Immigrant Health Care, and he is now serving on our Board. He will be an excellent MP.”

Dr. Paul Caulford — Lyall Avenue

Consumer Fairness

Workers & Fair Pay

Families & Affordability

Local Economy

Standing Up for Consumers

Arthur Potts has fought hard to protect consumers and ensure fairness in the economy. His Private Member Bills stopped AirMiles loyalty points from expiring; strengthened laws against identity fraud, provided access to free consumer credit scores, and prohibited daycares from charge non-refundable waitlist fees.

Workers and Fair Pay

Arthur Potts supports increases to Ontario’s minimum wage to bring it closer to a living wage. He helped develop Ontario’s Guaranteed Annual Income Pilot and passed a Private Member’s Bill that stopped restaurant owners from stealing servers’ tips. Workers are consumers too and their wages support the economy.

Making Life More Affordable for Families

Affordability has emerged as the most pressing concern for Canadians. Tariffs, rising energy and food prices, and job losses need to be addressed with industry supports for local manufacturing and innovation, new international trading relationships, investments in worker retraining and low income supplements. Arthur fought for affordability at Queen’s Park and will do so in Ottawa as your representative.

Helping Local Businesses Grow

Arthur understands that small business is the backbone of our economy. At Queen’s Park he led changes to tax rates for craft ciders and spirits which helped grow those industries, creating jobs and demand for agricultural goods. He currently sits on a number of CleanTech company boards helping commercialize new technologies that can affordably reduce global carbon emissions.

As an MPP Arthur Delivered Real Results
