Welcome to my web page---www.peggynash.ca
I am very pleased to be the NDP candidate
in the upcoming federal election in Parkdale-High
Park riding.
Along
with my partner, Carl Kaufman I have
lived in this community for 20 years. We have raised our three sons
here and like
many of you, have been involved in daycares, parent councils at local
schools as well as community sports. Our youngest son will soon
graduate from Western
Technical and Commercial
School just like his
grandfather did 60 years ago. I am proud of my roots in this community.
This federal election is about vision and
change. NDP leader Jack Layton has outlined a
progressive alternative to the Martin Liberals. Jack’s vision is about hope and
a responsible plan for achieving economic and social justice for all. It is about a clean environment and
waterfront. It includes a "New Deal" for
cities, where there is enough support for newcomers who settle here, and enough
money for public transit. It’s about using our hard-earned tax dollars for
better education and health care, not
paying off political allies, cutting corporate taxes, or buying George
Bush's "Star War" plan.
The 2004 federal election is about choices.
We can build a Canada
where nobody’s left on the streets at night. Where integrity is a government
priority. Where you and your family can count on essential services, such as
Medicare and quality education. Where
our kids have the clean air and water they deserve. Where cities are building housing
and improving public transit, while encouraging small business and bolstering
the arts.
Paul Martin and the Liberals have slashed
social spending in spite of promises to rebuild our country. Now they are
seeking a fourth term in government. It’s time for change. It’s time for a new
vision.
I know we can do better here, and across Canada. Parkdale-High Park deserves a strong voice in
Parliament. Join me in building a real alternative to the Liberals.
