			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">The PC volunteer appreciation BBQ and canvass was a success, as reported by one of our members who was in attendance with his dog Abby. The BBQ was a great chance to meet the <a href="http://www.thestar.com/ontarioelection/ridings/ridingprofile/251043">St Paul&#39;s</a> candidate, <a href="http://www.eyeweekly.com/blog/post/69539--i-guess-we-ll-see">Sue-Ann Levy</a>, who will be running in Bryant&#39;s former riding. The Liberal&#39;s are <a href="http://www.thestar.com/news/ontario/article/682049">not confident they will hang on</a> to the seat in St. Paul&#39;s. The by-election is coming up this Thursday Sept 17th. <br /></font></p>
<p style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">Following a day of canvassing,&nbsp; Leader Tim Hudak, Sue-Ann<br />
Levy, Party Executive, PC Caucus, volunteers, families, and friends of<br />
the Ontario PC Party had their<br />
annual volunteer BBQ.</font></p>
<p><font size="2"><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Here are some comments from our member who was there&#8230;</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></font>
<div style="margin-left: 40px; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2"><span style="font-style: italic;">Abby attracted a lot of favorable attention. I didn&#39;t meet<br />
one person who had anything good to say about the pit bull ban. Among<br />
the people coming over to greet Abby was a teenage girl with a<br />
little girl about 1 or 2 years old. The little girl liked petting Abby.</span><br style="font-style: italic;"><br style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br />
Later when I finally got a chance to speak to Tim Hudak the first<br />
thing he said was &#8220;your dog really hit it off with my daughter&#8221;. It<br />
turns out that the little girl was Tim Hudak&#39;s daughter. I asked where<br />
he stood on the pit bull ban and he called it a ridiculous law. He<br />
suggested that once elected that they need to bring in a new law that<br />
will actually be effective in protecting people from dangerous dogs.<br />
He commented that when he was a kid it was German Shepherds that<br />
people were afraid of. He did say that it wouldn&#39;t be a campaign<br />
issue, but he seemed well informed on the issue and definitely opposed<br />
to the pit bull ban.</span></p>
<p></font></div>
<p><font size="2"><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Thanks for the report Bryan and thanks for mascot duty Abby! </span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Remember to begin researching which party has the best chance of beating the Liberal in your riding for the next provincial election (Oct 2011). The countdown is on! If the next election is likened to a game of bowling, we are long over due for a strike to knock those Fiberal pins out of the way and get this province back on track!! Time to restore the sanity.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Good luck to Sue-Ann Levy this Thursday! Paws crossed for you..</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></font>
