MP MESSAGE


2009 January

A Message From Ed Holder

It is my pleasure to once again write to you as your elected federal representative in London West.

Let me share some thoughts on the drama that has been Ottawa in December, as well as my focus over the next number of weeks.

On December 4 we all saw history made as the Governor General agreed with Prime Minister Harper to prorogue Parliament until January 26.  This was an prudent decision.  It gives all MPs time to consider the issues facing us and allows our government to do what we promised last Fall; to develop a budget that addresses the tough times Canadians are facing. 

As you MP, I have been focused on consulting with many community stakeholders to ensure Londons needs are properly heard in the process leading up to the Budget.  Second, Ive been focused on serving the needs of Londoners through my annual work with the Business Cares Food Drive and the New Years Eve celebration in Victoria Park.

A key part of my responsibilities has been to assist London West residents on a multitude of issues that come up day-to-day.

If there are issues or information you would like in future editions, please dont hesitate to contact me or my team with your ideas.

For now, let me leave you with this message from my heart may 2009 find you and your family blessed with peace, health and happiness.

Ed Holder
Member of Parliament
London West
