Nipissing MPP Vic Fedeli is urging local high school students to consider applying to participate in The Legislative Assembly of Ontario three-day Model Parliament Program.
The program is for students in grades 10 to 12 and will be held at Queen’s Park from February 25-27, 2015.
This initiative brings together Ontario high school students representing all 107 provincial ridings who are interested in current affairs, provincial issues and government.
The Legislative Assembly is once again seeking applications from interested students in Nipissing riding to participate.
Last year, local students Anthony Caliciuri and Nicholas Waltenbury took part in the program.
“It’s a tremendous opportunity for any student to gain a greater understanding of the role and duties of MPPs and how our parliamentary democracy functions in Ontario,” Fedeli said in a news release.
Additional information and the online application are available at
