This year, Convention is happening from September 19-21, 2025 at the Niagara Convention Centre in Niagara Falls. Riding associations from across Ontario can elect delegates to represent them at Convention.
What happens at Convention?
Ontario NDP will release a full, detailed agenda closer to Convention, but it will include:
- discussion and adoption of policy resolutions;
- training sessions to improve our skills as activists ahead of the election;
- election of Ontario NDP Provincial Executive;
- reports from various Executives, committees, and bodies; and
- vote on whether or not to conduct a leadership review.
What accessibility measures will be at Convention?
The Ontario NDP is committed to providing a barrier-free Convention. Delegates will have the opportunity to express their accessibility needs during the registration process, but are welcome to reach out with questions and concerns to [email protected]. If you require ASL/LSQ services, please let us know as soon as possible.
Is there an option to attend Convention virtually?
A limited virtual participation option will be available for the 2025 Convention. Virtual attendees will be able to watch and listen to proceedings in the main plenary, vote via an online platform, and participate in debate. As this is a pilot project, we will be using a variety of new technologies and procedures with the goal of a seamlessly integrated Convention for both in-person and virtual delegates, but there is always a possibility of technological difficulties. To ensure the smoothest possible experience, we encourage delegates who are able to attend in person. The fee structure will be the same for in-person and virtual delegates and you can register normally. Stay tuned for more information, and contact [email protected] with any questions.
