Brant NDP 90cent fundraiser with Jack Layton
Brant NDP Federal Riding Association
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Wednesday Dec 16, 2009
NDP Leader Jack Layton and local Candidate Marc Laferriere offer a 90 cent alternative to the traditional fundraising dinner.
What can you get for 90 cents?
Brantford, ON – The Brant NDP is pleased to announce its campaign dinner at The Ring Caribbean Restaurant, 271 Colborne Street, on Wednesday, December 23, 2009 featuring NDP Leader Jack Layton and local candidate Marc Laferriere. The first seating for this full Caribbean-style Christmas dinner will be at 6:00pm, with a second seating beginning at 8:00pm.
The suggested price is 90 cents for adults and 50 cents for students and children. For those interested in donating to the campaign above the cost of dinner, any donations above $20 will receive a tax receipt and are much appreciated to continue our work during the campaign.
The Brant NDP is responding to other local parties expensive and elite campaign dinners which are often $90-$150 a plate. It is no wonder apathy is increasing in this system of party politics. "We were told by other parties that in order to be competitive we would have to organize expensive and exclusive events," stated Marc Laferriere, "we kindly disagree. The Brant NDP believes that accessibility and engagement are more important. This is what our movement in Brant is all about."
Federal NDP Leader Jack Layton will be attending and speaking at the event to support candidate Marc Laferriere and to listen to the needs of Brant constituents. "I am pleased to be a part of this event that demonstrates the growing movement in Brant for more sustainable and equitable action from the government on issues like the HST, economic development, affordability, climate change and retirement savings among other vital issues.”
According to Layton, “Marc Laferriere is a strong, vibrant and hard-working candidate who would be a great representative for a strong, vibrant and hard-working Brant in Parliament. I am happy to support him and this wonderful area for what promises to be a great event.”
The Ring’s Proprietor Eddie Wisdom adds “We believe in giving back to the community as does our candidate Marc Laferriere. We need to move beyond politics as usual and are excited to host this new and exciting event while helping to feed the community during the holiday season.”

Letter to the Editor published on HST
Brantford Expositor.... Letter to the Editor
The HST is being forced upon the people of Ontario without significant debate and without proper public consultation . No political party campaigned on implementing in the HST in the 2007 Provincial election nor in the 2008 Federal Election. I oppose this tax along with the Federal NDP lead by Jack Layton and Provincial NDP lead by Andrea Horwath. Our Liberal Mpp Dave Levac and our Conservative MP Phil McColeman support the HST and will vote accordingly. I take issue with Mr. Levacs comments that there has been plenty of discussion and information on the HST. The Ontario Liberal implementation of the the HST is going to be a massive burden upon the people of Brant. The benefits of the HST are insignificant compared to the hardship it is going to create. This is a tax grab and nothing less. The Ontario Liberals have even gone out on a limb to say that this tax will create 600,000 jobs. My discussions with the people in this riding suggests they aren't buying this snake oil either.The irony of the
Conservative government diverting $8 Billion dollars in EI Surplus away from those who paid into EI is not lost upon me. Now during a period of significant unemployment and with the EI coffers bare, the Conservatives could only find $300 Million to put back into EI across Canada for 2010. Compare this to the $4.3 Billion dollars the Conservatives are willing to spend our tax dollars on to "bribe" Ontario to implement a new tax. Ontarians are looking at the new face of stimulus spending.
Welcome to the Harper Sales Tax.
