Are you fed up with local MPs putting the interests of their party over the interests of their constituents?

Just received this message:
“Bravo with continuing to promote the idea of independent candidates. The root cause of our problems in Ottawa, not to mention elsewhere, is the dearth of quality M.Ps which results from people voting by rote for a party, thereby rendering irrelevant the qualifications and capacities of the individual candidates, thereby sending to Ottawa what Quebecers call “des poteaux”, (“posts” who are given no opportunity to express their views or to play any meaningful role in the legislative process).”
I was bitterly disappointed with the efforts I gave to Canadian Action Party — as were virtually all of the Toronto candidates who were detoured into the ditch by its leadership of past years. There is a new untested leader.
Toronto candidates who I have supported appear to be very interested in what an ‘independent candidacy’ can achieve.
Keep me posted.
There will be held in Moncton NB a convention to establish the INDEPENDENT COALITION PARTY OF CANADA on the weekend of 25 & 26th April 2009. There is a convention in Toronto Ont. on the 19th Jan 2009 for Independents who intend to run in the next federal. We encourage Canadians to seriously consider running as Independents and join the INDEPENDENT COALITION PARTY. (CONTACT JOE BONNEVIE 500 ELMWOOD DR.
