Dear friends and supporters,
As many of you are aware, this upcoming election
will provide social conservatives with a voice and opportunity
to repeal Bill C-38, the infamous legislation that seeks to
erode marriage and the family. Now, more than ever in our nation's
history, it is paramount that conservatives get involved in
the political process. If we want to see a real change in direction
for this country, we need only acquaint ourselves with one simple
word - SACRIFICE. Our self absorbed and indulgent culture is
leading our nation into moral and civil degradation. To address
this imbalance, people of good will must sacrifice themselves
for the good of the nation. I sincerely hope that we all do
it during this election. Without sacrifice, our country will
not turn around. It's that simple.
Although for the past three years I have become
involved in the political process, it has never been my intention
or desire to seek political office as a vocation in life. Indeed
the requisite talents and temperament normally associated with
such a vocation, I can honestly say, are absent within me. My
motivation in getting politically involved has always been (and
always will be) a matter of moral principle.
We all know that there are social conservatives
today who have the talent to be effective politicians, but they
have not come forward to stand up and be counted. This is especially
true in my riding of Ottawa West Nepean. As many of you know,
I was denied the chance to run as the Conservative Party's nominee
by this Riding's nominee screening committee because my socially
conservative views were politically incorrect. Apparently, drawing
attention to the real and documented health risks of homosexual
behaviour is beyond the pale in Canada's politics today. Playing
brother's keeper is anathema. Playing see "no evil hear
no evil", on the other hand, is where it's at.
As I have always said, politicians don't want
to say, much less admit, the truth. They want that useless,
painless jingle that sounds about right and can get them elected
in a culture of self-entitlement. People then wonder why the
country is in the gutter. The answer is simple: demand some
moral integrity from yourself and from your politicians and
you'd be amazed at how things improve.
Having denied me the chance of being democratically
elected, the Ottawa West Nepean Executive instead chose a candidate
that is not only for the heinous crime of abortion, but also
for same-sex "marriage". By not compromising and choosing
a more moderate candidate that social conservatives might vote
for (like the previous candidate, Sean Casey), they effectively
rendered social conservatives politically non-existent by choosing
a same-sex "marriage" activist like John Baird.
In light of this political ramrod and as there
are no candidates, to my knowledge, who are willing to publicly
and vigorously oppose these destructive policies, I am seriously
considering allowing my name to stand on the ballot to ensure
conservatives have a voice in the political process.
In order to register my nomination papers and
to gauge support for my candidacy, however, I need your prayers,
financial support and time. I also need 100 electors to sign
the "Electors Consenting to Candidacy" which is located
at the bottom of this link. Simply print off as many pages as
required.

Please do your best to get as many signatures
as possible. Each elector must be eligible to vote in Ottawa
West Nepean. The witness who initials the elector's signatures
and signs the bottom of the form should be the same person.
If my campaign team and I decide to register,
we will file the nomination papers and set up a bank account,
which will then be available for accepting political donations.
Donations are tax creditable according to the following rates:
75% of the first $400
50% of the next $350, and
33.33% of the amount over $750.
The maximum credit allowable is $650.
Thank you all for your support, encouragement,
and prayers. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas.
Praise Be Jesus Christ who humbled Himself to
become man!
