I am the father to a young family 1 and 3. The NDP has worked successfully to implement policies in Ottawa that benefit my family on a daily bases, such as $10 a day daycare and Canada Child Benefit. I also am gravely concerned about the future for my children. This summer, we experienced 6 weeks choking wildfire smoke during what is normally summer camp season. The kids were all forced to resort to indoor play due to the health-hazardous air. This is not why we live in rural British Columbia. This is why I decided to volunteer for my first campaign. Finally, I am impressed by Wayne's humility and kindness, and think his character reflects well on our community here in the Kootenays.
