Chandra Pasma is working to strengthen Ontario by defending public education, protecting health care, and fighting for families in Ottawa West–Nepean.
As a parent and long-time policy researcher, Chandra brings deep experience in public advocacy to her role as MPP and Deputy House Leader. As the Official Opposition’s Shadow Minister for Education, she is a tireless champion for smaller class sizes, better funding, and safe schools.

Before being elected, Chandra advised federal parliamentarians and worked for the Canadian Union of Public Employees, where she led campaigns to protect and strengthen essential services. Her work continues at Queen’s Park — holding the Ford government accountable for education cuts and pushing for urgent investments in health care and public infrastructure.
