Dan Visiting Heather Carter's Campaign Opening in Niagara West Glanbrook

Dan's busy Monday concluded with a bang, as Dan visited the Campaign office of Heather Carter, the Liberal candidate for Niagara West Glanbrook official campaign office opening. There was crowd of over 150 people there to see Dan and Heather talk about the Green shift and a richer, fairer, Greener Canada.

The Liberal association in this riding has a great amount of enthusiasm and energy, and will probably surprise a lot of people in the election. The gas issue is very important in a riding as vast and varying as Niagara West Glanbrook, and Dan's message resonated with the audience.

Dan gave a rousing speech, and ended up hanging around for about an hour talking to local citizens about many different issues they had. It was a very successful event, and shows that the Liberals have strength in all parts of Ontario.
