Meet the 4 new MPs elected in Hamilton and Niagara [Video]

Hamilton and Niagara residents have voted to send four new people to represent them in Ottawa. 

MPs-elect John-Paul Danko and Aslam Rana won for the Liberals in Hamilton West—Ancaster—Dundas and Hamilton Centre, respectively. For the Conservatives, Ned Kuruc took Hamilton East—Stoney Creek and Fred Davies was voted in for Niagara South.  

Danko and Davies were already serving their respective communities as municipal councillors when the federal election held Monday was called. Rana and Kuruc have been active in party politics, but this will be the first time they’ve held elected office. All will be new to the House of Commons.

Kuruc and Rana both defeated incumbent candidates in their ridings, which isn’t easy to do, Kuruc told CBC Hamilton. 

In 2021, he ran and lost in Hamilton East—Stoney Creek, coming second to Chad Collins. This time, Collins came second to him. The riding has been held by Liberals for most of its existence.
