Nomination of the NDP for several candidates of North Shore - L'Éveil - Saturday February 17, 2007
The New democratic party (NDP) invites its members and the citizens to be attended the nomination of the candidates who will be selected for various districts of North Shore for the next federal elections. This nomination with several candidates will take place on Saturday February 24, as of 2 p.m. 30, with the Saint-Eustache Inn.
Among the candidates present, Francis Chartrand will be again the representative of the NPD in the district of Rivière-des-Mille-Îles. For Argenteuil-Papineau-Mirabel, the candidate will be Alexandre Laberge. Michel Le Clair will present himself in the county of Terrebonne-Blainville. Simon Bernier will try his chance in the district of Rivière-Nord, while Jeannie Hamel will be candidate in Montcalm.
“We want all that the voice of the NDP is well heard in the Lowones, while wishing a government which respects the protocol of Kyoto, which puts an end to the war in Afghanistan, to having deputies who can promote our areas on the federal scene and which are not muzzled on behalf of the chief of party”, declares Francis Chartrand.
The voters of the area of Lower Laurentians granted more than 25.000 votes to the NPD at the time of the last poll. What gives a certain weight to the New-democrats, according to Francis Chartrand. “We want to continue, says it, to make pressure on our deputies to denounce the atrocities of the war in Lebanon last summer, to make hear our voice on the environmental stakes, to intervene on increasing poverty in our area, in addition to defending the Canadian Fund of television, threatened of disappearance.”
Another subject of predilection of the NDP relates to the banks vis-a-vis the consumers. In 2005, Mr. Chartrand recalls, the Canadians carried out more than 700 million withdrawals and 400 million different transactions by using the automatic teller machines. These transactions made so that the Canadians had to spend approximately 420 million dollars of their pocket.
“The NPD thinks that the Canadians are made empty of their money to the last penny by the large banks and that they should not have to pay expenses when they deposit, withdraw or transfer their personal money by using a banking automatic teller machine”, to affirm the candidate of Rivière-des-Mille-Îles.
The nomination of the candidates of the NDP will thus take place on Saturday February 24, as of 2 p.m. 30, with the Saint-Eustache Inn, located at the 40, Dubois street, in Saint-Eustache.
