On principles

March 1, 2010 Judi

It’s been a great day so far today. We started off with being on 95.9 CKUW with Brian, Ellen and myself talking about our views on issues. CBC news filmed me later on, and CJOB recorded an interview for use tomorrow.

Then it was more door to door. One woman said she wasn’t going to vote for me with a twinkle in her eye – she then said that after reading my brochure, she thought I was doing so much good where I’ve been that I should keep being a social worker in the front lines! By the time I left, I think they understood that I could do even more good in government. We had a great conversation about politicians sticking to their principles once they get elected. I’ve always stuck by my principles, even when it cost me to do so. I will continue to fight for people with no voice to have a voice, to fight for social progression and for government accountability.
