edit

Sulakhan Singh (Sam) Hundal (born 1940) holds a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Bachelor of Teaching degree from Punjab University, a Commonwealth graduate's teaching certificate from the School of Education at the University of Leicester, and a Master of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of Windsor. He works as a real-estate agent and language interpreter. Hundal has been involved in several Brampton community organizations since moving to the city in the mid-1970s, and participated in the 1996 Team Mission trade mission to South Asia.[16] He received a Governor General's 125th Commemorative Canada Medal in 1992, and was granted an Outstanding Contribution Recognition Certificate from the Premier of Ontario in 1994.[17]

Hundal campaigned for the Brampton City Council in 1982, but was defeated.[18] He was originally a member of the Liberal Party, and in 1990 challenged sitting Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) Carman McClelland for the Ontario Liberal Party nomination in Brampton North.[19] Hundal charged that McClelland was ignoring the concerns of Brampton's Sikh community. McClelland denied this, and noted that over 550 party members from Brampton North's Sikh community supported his renomination. McClelland won the challenge, 1,002 votes to 827, in a contest that was marked by open hostility between the candidates.[20]

Hundal later ran for the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada in Brampton Centre in the 1997 federal election, and finished third against Liberal candidate Sarkis Assadourian. He was chosen as the Conservative Party's candidate in 2004 after it was discovered that Gurjit Grewal, the party's original nominee, had faced an assault charge in the early 1990s.[21] He received 11,182 votes (27.53%), finishing second against Liberal candidate Ruby Dhalla.

Brant: Greg Martin

edit

After a failed bid in 1997, Martin was elected to council at age forty in the 2000 municipal election, defeating former mayor Bob Taylor for the ward's second seat.[24] He was re-elected in 2003 and 2006, but lost in 2010. Martin became vice-chair of the health board in 2002 and later chaired the corporate services committee and the Wayne Gretzky Sports Centre expansion work group.[25] He attempted to replace Marguerite Ceschi-Smith as chair of the city's brownfield committee in 2004, but was defeated.[26]

Generally, Martin was known as a fiscal conservative.[27] He was the only councillor to vote against a twenty-year downtown revitalization plan in 2002, saying that the region had already received too much money.[28] He was also the only councillor to vote against sending a trade delegation to Italy in 2005, and the following year he was one of two councillors to vote against continuing a grant to Laurier Brantford.[29] Martin sat on the Finance Committee for most of his time on Brantford City Council and as Chair, ushered in a service review program for city departments. He was successful in getting council to agree to a set time hiring freeze of municipal employees to help minimize property tax increases. He was also a proponent of intensive line-by-line study of operational and capital budgets during annual budget deliberations by council.

Martin served a one-year term as president of Brant's Reform Party of Canada association in the 1990s.[30] He opposed the party's United Alternative initiative in 1999, but nonetheless joined the resultant Canadian Alliance party in 2000.[31] The Alliance merged with the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada to form the Conservative Party in 2003, and Martin joined the new party. He was neutral in its 2004 leadership election.[32] Martin also served on the executive of the local Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario association and chaired the group Taxpayers Coalition Brant.[33] He frequently wrote letters to the Brantford Expositor before his election to council, advocating conservative policies.[34]

Martin called for referendums on abortion and the death penalty as part of his platform for the 2004 Federal election.[32] He received 17,792 votes (33.10%), finishing second against Liberal candidate Lloyd St. Amand.[2] He sought the Conservative nomination again for the 2006 federal election, but lost to Phil McColeman.[35]

In 1999, the Ontario government of Mike Harris sold a prime downtown Toronto property unit at half of its market value to All-City Storage, a California-based firm on which Tanz served as a director. The sale was subsequently the subject of an investigation by The Globe and Mail newspaper. Tanz described himself as an inactive director, and said that he knew nothing about the situation.[38]

Tanz finished second against Joe Volpe in 2004. He unsuccessfully campaigned to succeed Jane Pitfield as the representative for Toronto's 26th ward in the 2006 municipal election.[39]

Butcher.[41] He later won the party nomination in Nickel Belt.[42] He finished third against Ray Bonin, and commented that the riding's labour base made it impossible for the Conservatives to win.[43]

Toronto—Danforth: Loftus Cuddy

edit

Cuddy holds Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Laws degrees from the University of Toronto. He worked in defence insurance litigation for a year after his graduation, but switched to the plaintiff's side. For fifteen years before the 2004 election, he operated a practice in Toronto representing the interests of working-class people. He often worked pro bono in cases relating to social policy issues. Cuddy has been active in organizations such as the Royal Canadian Legion, the Holocaust Education Week Committee, and the Toronto Youth Symphony.[60] He was baptized as John Cuddy, but changed his name at age thirteen after becoming inspired by the writings of his great-great-grandfather, a Toronto minister.

Cuddy is the older brother of Jim Cuddy, the guitarist and vocalist of the rock group Blue Rodeo. His brother declined to endorse Loftus's campaign. This was not based on personal animosity, but because the younger Cuddy considered the Conservative Party to be too far to the right (The Globe and Mail, 26 May 2004).

Loftus Cuddy was on the left-wing of his party, and endorsed same-sex marriage during the 2004 election.[61] He received 2,975 votes (6.21%), finishing third against New Democratic Party leader Jack Layton.

Whitby—Oshawa was a targeted seat for the Conservatives, but MacNeil was nonetheless defeated by Liberal incumbent Judi Longfield. He received 20,531 votes (36.06%).

Windsor West: Jordan Katz

edit

Katz was born in Windsor, Ontario, and was 32 years old at the time of the election. He studied economics at the University of Windsor, although he began working as a pit boss at Casino Windsor before completing his degree. He has also worked as a hotel chef (Windsor Star, 25 May 2004), and is active with the Windsor Jewish Federation and the Canada Israel Committee.[63] He won the Conservative nomination over Greg Novini in late March 2004 (Windsor Star, 1–2 April 2004).

A Windsor Star poll taken during the campaign showed Katz with a narrow lead over New Democratic Party incumbent Brian Masse, although the reliability of the poll was disputed (5 & 11 June 2004). A subsequent poll showed him in third place (Windsor Star, 12 June 2004). Katz finished third against Masse with 8,348 votes (18.91%).

Katz is Jewish, and may have been the victim of anti-semitic vandalism during the campaign when some of his signs were spray-painted with swastikas. It is not clear if the vandalism was directed against Katz on a personal level or against the Conservative Party (signs belonging to Conservative candidate Rick Fuschi, who is not Jewish, were similarly defaced in a neighbouring riding. (Windsor Star, 15 June 2004).
