Following Cam Jackson's resignation to run for mayor of Burlington, the riding was left with a vacant seat at Queen's Park. Consequently, a by-election was called by Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty on January 10, 2007, to be held on February 8, 2007. Joan Lougheed, who was defeated by Jackson for the mayor's post, was nominated as the Ontario Liberal Party candidate on January 4, 2007. Former Halton Regional Chair Joyce Savoline became the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario candidate, after narrowly defeating former Miss Canada Blair Lancaster at their nomination meeting. On January 12, 2007, Brantford school teacher and community activist Cory Judson defeated former Halton District School Board trustee David Abbott for the Ontario New Democratic Party candidacy. On January 25, 2007, Frank de Jong was named the Ontario Green Party candidate.2003
