The Federal election in the final stretch with just 4 days until the October 19th vote following a marathon 11 week campaign.
St. Catharines Conservative incumbent Rick Dykstra joined Tim Denis in studio Thursday as Niagara Votes 2015 coverage continues.
Dysktra recommitting to the federal portion of funding a potential GO Transit expansion to Niagara.
He says the project has been priced and detailed, and that the region was asked to build a business case as to why the province and Metrolinx should bring GO to Niagara.
The Conservative party has been under fire for their treatment of aboriginal communities, specifically missing women.
Dykstra assures he's had many successful meetings with the aboriginal people in St. Catharines, and that they have mutually agreed that the plan should be to hold the convicted criminals accountable.
Concerning the Trans Pacific Partnership, Dykstra says he remembers a similar public resistance when the US Free Trade deal was signed, and that ended up being a positive move.
Discussing the niqab, Dysktra says it isn't a religious issue, it's a customs issue of a person having their face covered in the moment they swear their allegiance to Canada.
Tomorrow NDP candidate Susan Erskine-Fournier will be in studio in the morning, and at 1pm she along with Conservative incumbent Rick Dykstra, Green Party candidate Jim Fannon, and Liberal candidate Chris Bittle will return to CKTB studios for an All Candidates Debate.
