Three By-elections: NDP,
Liberals, Tories win one each
- Feb
9.2007
(NDP Victory in Working Class Riding Shows Support for a Living Wage and anger at the huge pay raises the Liberals put through for Politicians
The New Democrats aroused voter anger aimed at a Liberal
government that gives large pay raises to politicians while strongly arguing
against calls for a better minimum wage for Ontario's working poor.
Unexpectedly, NDP candidate Paul Ferreira has won the working-class riding
of York South-Weston.
“You sent such a clear message to the McGuinty government... that
thinks that it’s alright to ram through a 31 per cent pay increase for MPPs and
then say to the lowest paid workers in the province, `you’re not worth 10
dollars an hour,’ ” NDP Leader Howard Hampton told supporters.
Losing Liberal candidate Laura Albanese failed to capitalize on the
wage issue
The Liberals won in Markham with candidate Michael Chan while the
Conservatives held onto Burlington with candidate Joyce Savoline.
The new breakdown of
Ontario legislature seats is Liberal 69,
Progressive Conservative 24, NDP 10
