@mayintoronto "so unconnected" 😂

Therme has had a symbiotic relationship with the Ontario Conservative Party since the company was founded.

"Behind the scenes, Leslie Noble — who is something of an icon in Conservative politics in #Ontario — has been an important figure for the company for years. She’ll soon be joining #Therme Canada as a director, as well."
