Jane Kovarikova Nominated as the 2022 Ontario PC Party Candidate for London Fanshawe


LONDON – The Ontario PC Party is pleased to announce that Jane Kovarikova has been nominated as our candidate for the riding of London-Fanshawe for the 2022 provincial election.

Jane Kovarikova is a child welfare advocate and founder of the Child Welfare Policy Action Committee Canada (Child Welfare PAC), a national charity that has been instrumental in creating tuition-free college and university spots for current and former youth-in-care, across London and Ontario.

Jane graduated with a BA (Hon) in Psychology from Laurentian University and an MSc in Human Rights from the London School of Economics. As a staffer at the Ontario Legislative Assembly, Jane was instrumental in developing legislation to reduce youth homelessness.

Jane is a PhD Candidate and Lecturer at Western University in the Department of Political Science, and currently serves as board chair of a regional child protection agency and on the Premier’s Council for Equality of Opportunity.
