Since first coming out with my intentions to run for the Liberal nomination in Stratford-Kinlock back in November, several people, friends and otherwise, took the opportunity to lend their advice.Here are some of the great words of wisdom I have picked up along the way: “Above all…stay focused.” “Stay true to yourself.” “Do what you [...]
THANK YOU for all your support and kind words of encouragement. iBeginShare.attachButton(‘share-tool-82539188397′, {title: ”, link: ‘http://www.cynthiadunsford.com/2007/05/30/85/’, content: ‘http://www.cynthiadunsford.com/?ibegin_share_action=get_content&id=85′});
A new day!
At one of the more tense moments last night, as the poll results were being called in. And now the real work begins. iBeginShare.attachButton(‘share-tool-80191981746′, {title: ‘A new day!’, link: ‘http://www.cynthiadunsford.com/2007/05/29/a-new-day/’, content: ‘http://www.cynthiadunsford.com/?ibegin_share_action=get_content&id=83′});
On the line
As the uniforms of the last four weeks hang freely, blowing in the light wind, gently permeating clean crisp air through threads of traveled polyesters and alike, I am agog at the distance my shoes have gone. Each pair of these pants have leaned up against splintered shingles, rusted doorways, freshly painted walls, or sunken [...]
Great day to be a Liberal!
Here I am at the Hillsboro Bridge saying hi to the thousands of people heading into town this morning. iBeginShare.attachButton(‘share-tool-27030185703′, {title: ‘Great day to be a Liberal!’, link: ‘http://www.cynthiadunsford.com/2007/05/25/great-day-to-be-a-liberal/’, content: ‘http://www.cynthiadunsford.com/?ibegin_share_action=get_content&id=73′});
Mantra
Why… Because I believe that by stepping forward to serve my community I can make a difference. Stratford residents have told me over the past few months that they want a strong voice in government, they want their MLA to know who they are. What I am offering Stratford residents is quite simple: I am [...]
A changing community
Everywhere you turn in Stratford there are new houses being built. Everywhere you turn in Stratford there are Tories turning! Music to my ears, but more importantly, I’m glad people are standing up and speaking out about how they have had enough. (you fill in the blanks)…Enough_____________, enough _____________, enough _____________. I’ve heard it all [...]
Once upon a time…
Had a great day with Liberal Party Leader, Robert Ghiz yesterday. Spent some time getting to know the residents of Andrews of Stratford, as well as a ‘lesson in elections and government’ with the children at Little Blessings Kindergarten on Glen Stewart Dr. “When you get older you will be able to choose (elect) someone [...]
12 more sleeps
(Left to right) Shirley, Alice, Rita and Pearl, the gate keepers at St. John House, an apartment buiding for seniors in Stratford. My visits here have been so enjoyable. St. John House is a great place with incredible spirit, stories and humour. There is always laughter bouncing out from behind the doors or echoing through [...]
Mothers and politics…
On this, a day for mothers to be pampered and treated, I sit with my feet up looking out the front window at quiet streets and driveways heaped with ‘Spring pick-up’ items. Homes culled of past collections of bits of plumbing, bicycles and what nots. I am grateful to have a day…to myself… even if [...]
