MPP: Hon. James J Bradley - St. Catherines

Heavenly Father we praise you today for your providential care and provision for the province of Ontario. As we pray for the leadership you have laced in office, we pray today for the riding of St Catherines and James Bradley who serves as MPP. We ask that you would protect him, provide for him. We pray that you would give him strength and wisdom as he serves the people of his riding and the people of Ontario. Amen   

Jim Bradley was first elected to represent St. Catharines in the Ontario legislature in 1977, and has had the honour of holding several cabinet positions. He is currently the Chair of Cabinet and Deputy Government House Leader.

During his previous stint as Minister of the Environment, he was an innovative leader in cleaning up pollution, and bringing the Blue Box recycling to millions of homes. As Minister of Transportation, Jim brought in legislation to toughen penalties against drunk driving, and he expanded public transit across Ontario.
