Olivia Chow heads back to work

".... she will soon dive head first into her new private members bill to advocate for a national transit strategy. The bill will be introduced shortly after the House of Commons reconvenes."

Some good news!

That national transit strategy is a reason why I voted NDP last election with a sense of trust. Imagine ambitious federal standards for public transit service levels and infrastructure with stable federal guidance and funding. Let transit networks in cities across the country be built like Pearson airport: large scale, taking decades of future demand into account, and knowing that the economy depends on it.

Glad to hear it. She along with Jack have worked so hard to get to where they are today. I really feel bad that Mr. Layton had to pass away when his party was finally starting to get some support across the country. Hopefully whoever replaces him will continue his hard work and dedication and give Canadians another choice when it comes time to elect a Prime Minister
