Nomination Meeting

The Beaches-East York NDP is proud to be holding its federal nomination meeting on Sunday, January 24th. Registration opens at 1:00 PM, and the meeting commences at 1:30. It is being held at Royal Canadian Legion Branch 345, which is located at 81 Peard Road, on the corner of Peard Road and Victoria Park Avenue, two blocks north of St. Clair Avenue.

Our nomination is being contested between two candidates: Matthew Kellway (www.matthewkellway.ca) and Barbara Warner (www.barbarawarner.ca). Please note that the address for Barbara's website was incorrect in the mailing; it is .ca, not .com.

Our guest speaker for the event is a big one: NDP MP for Timmins–James Bay and critic for Digital Issues and Heritage and Culture, Charlie Angus! Also in attendance for the nomination will be: our great MPP, Michael Prue; our two wonderful city councilors, Janet Davis and Sandra Bussin; and Andrew Cash, musician, NOW magazine columnist and NDP candidate in the riding of Davenport. Andrew will be playing a few songs for us to kick of the meeting!

Childcare will be available at the nomination meeting; however, we request that you let us know in advance if you require it. Please contact us before 1:00 PM on Friday, January 22nd at beyndp@gmail.com or by phone at 416-910-8980.

Depending on your location, there are a few options to get to 81 Peard Road via public transit. If you live around or south of the Danforth Subway, you can take the subway to Victoria Park Station, and then take the Victoria Park 24 Northbound bus to the St. Clair Avenue stop. Cross to the west side of Victoria Park, and Legion Branch 345 is two blocks north. The St Clair stop on the 23 Dawes Rd Northbound, from Main Station, and the Victoria Park stop on the 70 O’Connor (but not the 70A or 70B) Eastbound from Coxwell Station will also take you to St. Clair Avenue and Victoria Park Avenue.
