Fair Trade, protection of the environment, education, public healthcare
are some of the issues driving Catherine to seek the support of Macleod
Riding's electorate. She goes on to say, "Canadian Action Party is
common sense. It isn't a new party, and it isn't corporately funded, so
they need strong support from the people. I feel that I have found the
echo of my beliefs in CAP. It is so simple. It makes one wonder why
politicians try to complicate these matters? We are the government and
it is time our views were reflected by our elected members." Whelan
Costen is looking forward to exposing the issues and offering a viable
alternative. This will be her first attempt to seek a seat as MP, but
not her first campaign. Whelan Costen, ran provincially in the last
Alberta election in Highwood Riding.
[Congratulations Catherine! At the risk of Vive appearing to promote one particular candidate or another, I'm glad to see that one of out own is getting out there and standing up for their values. Dr.C]

If I stand for my country today...will my country be here to stand for me tomorrow?

When you are up to your ass in alligators it is difficult to remember that the initial objective was to drain the swamp
Too much power in the PMO, and too much reliance on lobbyist, corportions, and think tanks, and not enough common sense. Really it doesn't take a genius to know you ought to read and understand trade deals etc, before you sign on behalf of the country, or any other deals made with our money. They wouldn't blindly sign a contract if it meant money out of their own pockets, so why do it with ours?

We need to return the government to being a reflection of the people, not us, the slaves of their desires. I'd love to see some of that passion that urged our citizens to go to war, to fight in WWI and II, and work here in Canada for peace, returned to the people. I don't mean a desire to go to war, because I don't believe anyone had that, but the passion to stand up for this country and what is right!

Best of luck, Catherine.
