Thanksgiving Message to Canadians

This Thanksgiving We Can All be Thankful for Many Things…

We can be thankful for our men and women in the Canadian Forces who serve our nation with honour and distinction.

We can be thankful that we live in a democratic country that respects the rule of law and permits people to vote for any political party they choose.

We can be thankful for the rights and freedoms that every Canadian can enjoy.


e can be thankful for the beauty of our country and for our steadfast commitment to protecting the environment for today and for future generations.



Most importantly, we can all give thanks for our families and friends and that each one of us is able to call Canada our home.



To You and Yours, Best Wishes for a Safe and Happy Thanksgiving

First Ever Online Townhall

Dan was able to take questions for an hour tonight on many issues. This has to be the first time that a Liberal politician has been able to act in such an interactive online forum.

Jamie Callingham, the New Media chair for the campaign moderated the questions, and kept Dan answering them at a good pace. He edited and moderated the order of the questions sent on facebook and twitter, as well as those in the ustream chatroom.

Dan took questions on the issues of gas prices, the green shift, Omar Khadr, transportation in Durham Region, Western Alienation, and various other issues.

Dan was able to use his depth of knowledge to frankly and honestly answer every question given to him. He didn't use the spin and rhetoric we usually associate with Stephen Harper and Jack Layton.

The Townhall Meeting will be shown on the votemcteague.ca website by tomorrow. Feel free to watch it and make your own judgements on one of the members of the strong Liberal team.
