Is Baird Scared?

Things just got even more interesting in Ottawa West-Nepean! Did you know that in the 2011 election, Anita received the second highest vote total among non-incumbent Liberals?  Anita has been gaining momentum ever since. She has been actively involved in the riding nearly full-time, speaking to thousands of people in OWN. On the heels of Anita becoming the first  candidate to be green-lit for the OWN Liberal nomination, we learned that John Baird has decided NOT to seek re-election in OWN, in favor of the newly formed riding of Nepean. Frankly, I don’t blame him. Who wouldn't be scared to run on Harper’s record against such an electable and strong local candidate?

Baird’s decision certainly presents an opportunity for us in 2015, but most importantly it highlights the strength of Anita as a candidate and the extent that Justin’s focus on the middle class is resonating with Canadians. More and more I’m convinced that we are on a winning team, and I know that Anita is the candidate to make it happen. Please consider being part of the team and most importantly - start getting excited! There's so many ways for you to get involved from now right up until election day in 2015.

Great youth and Anita support at English leaders debate!


English leaders debate was pretty awesome, we had tons of Anita signs around and lots of great Young Liberals out to rally for us. In keeping with a great tradition, the Young Liberals had some good costumes, including myself as the fake lake, a billionaire for Harper (Monopoly man), a Harper chicken, and Stephen Harper as the King of Corruption and Patronage. It was a great night, and we can't wait for the French debate.

A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian and the answer to Canada's democracy problem.


Michael Ignatieff is a Canadian, much the same as you and I. He has a background similar to many Canadians who have come to make Canada their home from another country because they saw the hope and equality of opportunity in our great nation. And he has a vision for Canada:


Anita Vandenbeld's story is another great Canadian story, as the daughter of immigrant parents who came to Canada to make a better life. And they did. She grew up with a determined and hardworking ethic, contributing successfully to both the business and government worlds. She worked at multiple jobs to put herself through school. Her hard work and dedication paid off and brought her to working for the United Nations to promote democracy and women's rights around the world.

Because of this work, Anita knows that you deserve better than this lack of demoracy and believes that you deserve an MP who listens to you, and a government that works for your priorities, defends democratic principles and provides representation for you. John Baird is off defending Minister Oda and the PMO's corruption, scandals, lack of transparancy and accountability instead of listening to the constituents of Ottawa West-Nepean. Even in 2009, John Baird admitted they will "replace accountability with corruption":


Enough!

In Stephen Harper's own words:

Ottawa West-Nepean and Canada deserve better - Canadians Anita Vandenbeld and Michael Ignatieff are the answer.
