Don’t bother contacting Mr Nicholls, he hasn’t bothered to answer any of the questions which I had asked him through his website “contact me” venue about 2 weeks ago.
Since he won’t attend any public debates, I felt the only way I could find out who he is was by asking questions directly to him…..and sadly Mr Nicholls has provided no answer.
Each of Mr Nicholls MPP candidate colleagues across Ontario are taking the same approach the federal “Conservative” MP candidates took…..no public speaking or answering of questions.
How anyone with an ounce of common sense could support a party with that kind of attitude and blatant malice toward the electorate is beyond my comprehension . . .
Does that tell us something? What are these Ontario hudak “progressive” conservatives hiding?

Those that are quiet, are quiet for a reason. How could anyone vote for a no show like this? Unfortunately he’ll get lots of votes come election day because of the colour of his signs. That is absurd.

Ms Sullivan has no experience politically, or professionally. Her ability to conduct herself accordingly in a pressure position as she could not handle a position as a federal
Public service worker. This candidate is a dud.

I would like to address the comment made by Mr. Martin. Sir, I was not aware that we have met: have we? Please forgive me if I have not yet held a seat in public office, but I can guarantee that I have experience in the political arena. I also have a substantial amount of professional experience, in a variety of capacities. As for my career as a Public Servant, I would like to request that you not discuss issues which do not concern the election, or those of which you have no first hand knowledge. My career so far has been wonderful, serving the people of Canada; I have always received excellent performance evaluations, and excelled in my field. My current studies are actually related to my current position as a public service employee, and I am hoping to return to the same agency, in a more educated and rewarding position, where my talents can be fully exploited. I can assure you I am no dud! I stand by my decision to run a low key campaign, my decisions are my own. I have been very clear, however, that should I be privileged enough to be elected as MPP, I would most certainly be able to represent my hometown riding as good as any other candidate; if fact, I would argue better!
