"It’s time working families got a fair deal. Dalton McGuinty’s record has been one broken promise after another. But he still found time to give himself a $40,000 pay raise. That’s someone who has lost touch with working families. We deserve better.

"I’m proud to stand with Howard Hampton – a leader who is upfront, honest, and principled. You know you can count on us to stand up for seniors, children, parents, and working people.

"This time, ask yourself ‘Which leader and party can I count on to fight for a fair deal for working families?’

"I hope I can count on your support on October 10."

Peter Ferreira is an accomplished educator, an advocate for New Canadians and a tireless activist for the Portuguese community.

Peter is a strong voice for today’s working families. As chair of the Dufferin Peel Catholic School Board, he stood up to Dalton McGuinty and said ‘No’ to cuts in the classroom. He also served as president of the Portuguese National Congress, where he helped lead the fight against the unfair deportation of hard-working immigrant families.

Peter is very active in the community. He is president of the Portuguese Canadian National Congress and the First Portuguese Cultural Centre. He volunteers with the Ontario Mental Health Foundation and the Canadian Ethnocultural Council. He is the recipient of the Governor General of Canada Commemorative Medal for community service.

Peter looks forward to championing a fair deal for his constituents as the next representative for Davenport at Queen’s Park.
