West Nova NDP

Thank You! Thank you so much for the support I received from all of you for my campaign in West Nova. I am over whelmed with the encouragement I received from you along the campaign trail! I would also like to take this moment to apologize for the technical problems we had if you ordered a sign and didn't receive one or a ride to the polls. We'll do better now that we have that fixed. Hugs!

Still time to get an NDP sign. Or be orange and grow your own!

I received this query from a concerned neighbour after a news piece by Paul Wither on the CBC - Can you explain why it's more important to go to a film festival than being out representing your possible constituents? My reply - Good Evening - What the Paul Withers piece forgot to mention was: I am a member of the Kings Film Society. The Atlantic Film Fest is the only opportunity to see the films we are screening outside of the Toronto film fest. I was a previous member of th...e AFF because I believe film is one of the strongest conveyors of culture. I have always believed that we (the maritime people) need to be able to tell our stories to the rest of the world and ourselves. It strengthens our identity and promotes business and tourism to our area. Also not mentioned in that piece was that when I was not reviewing films, I was working 13 hour days, contacting my campaign team via text, phone and conference calls and calling voters and donors. I got 3 hours of sleep each night for that week. I will be working just as hard when I'm your MP and I will be working for minimum wage since I intend to forego my $173K salary and give that portion to charity. This is what it means to be NDP to me. Working for you and not myself. PS. I'm up to 4 hours sleep per night during the rest of this campaign. (Thanks to Jason Langille for the photo. Another sign went up today) See more

Very interesting twist on reasons to vote strategically. http://rabble.ca//election-minority-government-looming-its

Yesterday, a carnivore I know, stopped at McDonalds. They're playing Monopoly again and he got this as his first game piece. Even the game Monopoly knows that the Canadian government can be bought! TIME for a CHANGE.
