NDP candidates are allready already selected


The president of the Quebec section of the NDP, Piper Huggins, the candidate of Terrebonne-Blainville, Michel Le Clair, the candidate of Rivière-des-Mille-Îles, Francis Chartrand, the candidate of Rivière-du-Nord, Simon Bernier, and the Quebec adviser of Jack Layton, Pierre Ducast

In order to be fine loan with a nearest release of the federal elections, the New democratic Party (NPD) carried out the nomination of the candidates of the area of Laurentides.

Last on February 24, on the NDP candidates demolished of the last election decided to represent itself in their county. In Terrebonne-Blainville, Michel Le Clair, in Rivière-des-Mille-Îles, Francis Chartrand, and in Rivière-du-Nord, Simon Bernier, will be the candidates.

“Why choose the NPD? Because we carry a voice which is not it by any other party”, declares Pierre Ducast, adviser of Jack Layton in Quebec and candidate in Hull-Aylmer.

It benefitted from its platform to do it parallel between the governments Harper and Bush. Mr. Ducast also recalled the changes of position on various files of the Liberal Party of Canada since it belongs to the opposition. “The liberals criticize files which they themselves set up whereas they formed the government”, it rises.

According to him, the Bloc Québécois does not have any more its place. Whereas he says himself democratic and progressist, the Bloc did not support the bill of the NDP as for establishing a strategy of fight to poverty while starting by fixing the federal minimum wage at 10 $, regrets it. “It is necessary to speak about social imbalance”, supports it.

“The Block can nothing make because if you do not have the wheel between the hands, you cannot go to good port”, increases Michel Le Clair.

To carry out a common nomination makes it possible to the candidates to show the philosophy of family of the political party. Moreover, one often sees a catch of joint position of the candidates on collective stakes.

The three candidates affirmed guaranteed the NDP values, beyond their will to present itself again.

Francis Chartrand has several projects in sight of which funds Community for the fight with poverty. “I was intervening at the Café de la Paix. I noted the number of young people who live in the street”, mentions it.

With nearly 80 members, the district of Rivière-des-Mille-Îles is one of most alive.

As for Michel Le Clair, it denounces the presidents of the banks and the oil companies which gain high wages. To work to provide the needs of its family and to pay taxes to be entitled to services, it is correct, but it does not include/understand this imbalance.

“If everyone rises and made its small effort, one can perhaps change the world in which one lives”, it concludes.

Given that the federal government made the advertisement of its budget on March 19, the NDP organizer, Charles Bussières, does not believe that the elections will be started before March 26, but believes that that could follow. “While officializing which will be the candidates, one will be able to start to lay down objectives for our local team”, explains he. “It is easier for the citizen to contact his candidate in order to determine the stakes of the countryside when he is known”, Pierre Ducast adds.

The organizer let know with the militants present that these candidates will need a moral, physical support and financier for the next countryside. “A vote to NDP, it is a vote for the community”, declares Charles Bussières.

Hello fellow dipper!

Good to see you have a blog. I have one as well and our candidate for Rosemont-la-petite-patrie, Alexandre Boulerice has one also.

Cheers

p.s.: It's, er, Pierre Ducasse, not Ducast.
