THREAD: There's something good happening in Barrhaven. Tonight we're in Thistledown Court. I've been here before. My kind if people. Give you the shirt off your back kind of people. 1/
There's a reason the #NDP resonates with working class Canadians. "I know you're good people," is what we heard tonight. "I know you've got our backs." 2/
When they say why they're voting NDP, it's not about what they want for themselves. It's about others. Guy said he's voting NDP "so Indigenous communities can get clean water." He likely has trouble paying his rent. 3/
For me, this family just made my day. Young woman, her fiance and her mom. Two of them voting for the first time, Mom just so excited that they're so engaged. Change is coming, one doorstep at a time. #Elxn44

After canvassing, I'm usually up until 2AM responding to emails (then back up at 6AM, it's gruelling). People care so much about voting that they send HUGE questions to all candidates. We all get these emails. Tons of them. #Elxn44 1/
I respond to all of them. Sometimes my emails are two pages long. It's not always "yes" or "no". And the questions are often quite personal: sometimes the sender is letting you know about health issues with their loved ones, or their financial troubles. It's rough stuff. 2/
At the very least, it feels good that (as a candidate) you're letting them know that someone cares about their concerns. Guess how often people tell me that politicians simply don't respond, don't care. Lots. 3/
