A legend takes a bow
A few weeks ago, the Honourable Peter Kent announced that he will not stand as the Conservative Candidate in the next federal election. It goes without saying that Mr. Kent is leaving some very big shoes to fill.
It has been an absolute honour to work closely with Peter and to serve as his Campaign Chair since 2008. I could go on and on about all of the work he has done and the incredible representative he has been for our community, but I will save that for his actual retirement.
Now that Thornhill does not have a Conservative Candidate for the next federal election, the Electoral District Association (EDA) has launched a nomination competition. I have been nominated and appointed to serve as Chair of the Candidate Nomination Committee and will therefore remain neutral throughout the competition.
I am looking forward to a respectable, fair, transparent and dignified nomination race, and more so to Thornhill uniting behind our next Candidate to ensure that our riding remains Conservative!

4 年We were proud to provide Peter and his team with custom-made TakeCare Supply masks, and were thrilled that he took the time to tour our North York factory to see first hand how we’re manufacturing locally!

4 年Peter Kent is one of the most kind, genuine, and decent peopIe I have ever met. His sincere dedication to duty and service transcends beyond? to that of his constituents, but to all people living in Canada. He stalwartly defends the rights of those who have no voice. It is my privilege to see how he acts in support of the Yezidi People. Thank you, Peter Kent.
