"Rise up Canada!" a great speech from Michael Ignatieff
Powerful words from Michael Ignatieff on fighting "so what" culture. Canadians deserve better.
Here is a great write-up from Macleans: http://www2.macleans.ca/2011/04/16/the-commons-rise-up/
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.
Liberals are listening - and we want to hear from you on Sunday for the platform townhall!
http://www.liberal.ca/live/ While Conservatives like John Baird are more interested in yelling at you, Liberals are listening. Click the link above to RSVP to a special live town hall with Michael Ignatieff as he unveils the Liberal platform and takes your questions. Liberals have already committed to investing in learning and families with fresh ideas like the Learning Passport, the Liberal Family Home Care Plan, and the Early Childhood Learning and Care Fund, so join with us this Sunday to see how the Liberals will move Canada forward.
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.
Statement by Michael Ignatieff on "IAW"
http://www.liberal.ca/newsroom/news-release/statement-liberal-leader-michael-ignatieff-israeli-apartheid-week/
A strong statement from Michael Ignatieff on so-called "Israeli Apartheid Week".
“The voices of anti-Semitism and intolerance have no place in Canada, in the Middle East, or anywhere in the world. All Canadians – and all university students – have the right to feel safe and secure in our communities, regardless of who they are or what they believe.
“On behalf of the Liberal Party of Canada and our parliamentary caucus, I urge all Canadians to join with us in once again condemning Israeli Apartheid Week here in Canada and around the world.”

Rally with Michael Ignatieff and Ottawa area candidates a smashing success!
Thanks so much to everyone who came! Ottawa West-Nepean was honoured to host the first rally of the 20/11 Tour, and it was a great time. We had over 250 people, even some overflow into the mall, and lots of people came from the area doors we had knocked on. Anita delievered a great speech about why the people of Ottawa West-Nepean deserve a better government, and Michael Ignatieff followed up with an adress detailing how in 5 years, the Conservatives have failed to improve the lives of everyday Canadians, and how a Liberal government will do better. It's a sign of strength that the leader would choose this riding to start up the campaign, and thanks to the continued hard work of all members of the team, particularly youth, we can do it.
Join us for the first event of the 20/11 Tour!
http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=173291749375363&index=1Ottawa West-Nepean has the honour of hosting the first event of the 20/11 Tour, tomorrow at noon, at the Carlingwood Family Restaurant at the Carlingwood Mall. That Michael Ignatieff has chosen our riding to be the first one to visit shows a huge amount of confidence in our team, and our youth team in particular. Make no mistake - the party sees the effort we are putting into this campaign, and knows that thanks in large part to us, Ottawa West-Nepean is a winnable riding. So come out tomorrow and join Michael Ignatieff, Anita Vandenbeld, and Ottawa area Liberal candidates!
Michael Ignatieff coming to Ottawa West-Nepean for his Winter Tour Kickoff!
Happy New Year everyone! I hope your holidays have been fun. So let's get back to business. We hope you can join us at the Carlingwood Family Restaurant, at the Carlingwood Mall on Jan 12 at noon for the kickoff of Michael Ignatieff's Winter Tour. Iggy coming to this riding first is important, it shows that all our hard work for Anita has paid off, the party wants to focus on this riding because they know that this is a winnable riding with a great youth team. Hope you can come out and bring your friends!
