2018 Annual Holiday Party

2018 Annual Holiday Party

To commemorate a very exciting year for New Democrats, the Toronto Centre NDP are delighted to invite you to join us at our annual holiday party.

Celebrate all the amazing accomplishments this year with food, drinks and great conversation with fellow New Democrats as we celebrate this festive season. Together, we've turned Toronto Centre orange provincially, and have started building momentum for an exciting 2019. We will be joined by our very own MPP Suze Morrison, our Toronto Centre city councillor, Kristyn Wong-Tam and TDSB Trustee Chris Moise. All supporters are welcome.

Please head to the party room on the first floor, to the left of the main entrance.  We hope to see you there!

What an historic night in Toronto Centre!

What an historic night in Toronto Centre!

Earlier this evening, I spoke with David Morris and Meredith Cartwright. I want to thank them both for their commitment to public service and their grace and hard work throughout the campaign. We are fortunate to have such dedicated people among our neighbours in Toronto Centre.

I am ecstatic to tell you that our patience and efforts have been rewarded. I am deeply humbled that our community has placed their trust in me to represent the wonderful and diverse communities of Toronto Centre at Queen’s Park.

As your MPP, I will strive to be open, available, and committed to listening to the voices of all of Toronto Centre’s constituents. I will carry with me the progressive values that brought me this far – values of equity, fairness, inclusion, and justice.

There are more people to thank than I can do justice to right now. I am grateful to Trevor, my family, my whole campaign team, every supporter, and to absolutely every Toronto Centre resident who took the time this election to vote for a better future.

I extend the warmest congratulations to my New Democrat colleagues across Ontario who gave this campaign the full extent of their love and abilities. Though we must continue to wait for the New Democrat government Ontario needs, our organization is stronger than ever and our resolve to continue to work for change for the better has never been more firm.

Thank you for your support and trust.

In solidarity,

-- Suze

Thank you!

Thank you!

It is an enormous honour to be trusted with the provincial NDP nomination in Toronto Centre. To see first hand the commitment, diversity, and resiliency among New Democrats in Toronto Centre has been humbling. I pledge to represent you as best I can.

Over the past weeks and months, I have been inspired by the work and activism of Kevin Beaulieu and Michael Erickson. I look forward to working together for many years to come, and I commend them for their superb campaigns. I must also thank my supporters, volunteers, donors and cheerleaders for carrying me to the finish line. My family, especially my husband Trevor, have stood next to me the whole way and I am forever grateful for their love and support.

I truly believe this year we will send an NDP government to Queen's Park. Careerist Liberals, including our former MPP, have not even had the dignity to complete their mandates. The Conservatives are leaderless and mired in scandal of their own. The NDP has never been better positioned to form government - and with your help, I will be part of it.

To win in Toronto Centre, we need to work together. I will need your advice, your time, certainly your vote and yes, sometimes your money to make it happen. But we cannot wait any longer for Toronto Centre to have effective representation at Queen's Park.

I am starting today. Will you help today too?

Here's what I need to start this campaign on the strongest footing.

  • Spreading the word - Tell your friends, family, and neighbours that I am running to represent you at Queen's Park. Let me know if there's an event or get together I can join to meet more of our community.
  • Keep up to date! Follow me on Facebook or Twitter.
  • Volunteers - Sign up to volunteer
  • Money - Donate Online Now

Stay tuned for more updates as this campaign for Queen's Park gets rolling.

See you soon,

-- Suze Morrison
NDP Candidate, Toronto Centre

Members who were in good standing at the end of 2017 continue to be in good standing until March 31, 2018 -- therefore, if you were eligible to vote in the 2017 federal leadership race and you live in Toronto Centre, you are eligible to vote in this provincial nomination contest.
