NEWMARKET, Ont. — It should come as no surprise that police are actively investigating the gas plants scandal, Liberal Premier Kathleen Wynne said Friday as she pleaded with Ontario voters to judge her on her record and campaign platform.

Speaking at a campaign event less than a week before the election, Wynne urged people to consider how she has handled the scandal, and to focus on the “stark” choice they must make about the province’s economic future.

“On election day, on June 12, I’ll be judged on all of that — on whether under my leadership I’ve done everything to ensure these mistakes won’t happen, and on the virtues of my plan,” Wynne said.

“I’m comfortable with that because I know I’ve kept my word.”

On Thursday, provincial police investigating the alleged destruction of government documents related to the cancellation of two gas plants served a court order on the legislative assembly for logs showing who had entered the legislature.
