WELLAND - Claiming "the three mainstream parties have not come up with the solutions to Ontario's problems," an Atlas Steels employee has entered the provincial election race.
Barry Fitzgerald, of 491 Deere St., will run in Welland-Thorold Riding for the Freedom Party.
He will face opposition from incumbent MPP Peter Kormos of the New Democratic Party, Don McMillan of the Liberal Party and Cam Wilson of the Progressive Conservatives.
"I don't see any of the answers to any of our problems coming from the three parties," said Fitzgerald in announcing his candidacy.
"I think it's time we look for new solutions and I think our party can offer them," he said.
Fitzgerald is one of 10 candidates who will run for the party across Ontario in the Sept. 6 election. He has already started placing campaign signs throughout the city.
Fitzgerald ran for the Freedom Party in the 1988 byelection which saw Kormos elected to office.
