PMO staffer will run for the Liberals in federal byelection
THORNHILL, Ont. — A senior aide to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will carry the Liberal banner in a federal byelection next month.
The Liberal party says Mary Ng beat out two challengers Saturday in a nomination battle in the Toronto-area riding of Markham-Thornhill.
Ng worked in the Prime Minister’s Office as his director of appointments.
Ng, who came to Canada from Hong Kong with her family, does not live in the riding but grew up in nearby north Toronto.
