Niki Ashton says she’s looking forward to holding Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau accountable.  The recently re-elected MP for Churchill Keewatinook Aski says they do know the he’s made significant commitments through this campaign to northern communities whether its in terms of infrastructure or housing or health, whether its in terms of addressing the key issues that First Nations face again whether its education or third world living conditions that First Nations face as well as in terms of addressing treaty rights and aboriginal rights and she’s looking forward to holding his government to account on those commitments.

Ashton says she doesn’t think the slip in NDP support will affect her impact in the House of Commons or her ability to represent Northern Manitoba. She says her number one priority no matter what else is going on is to fight for our north.
