MEET DAN DALE, ONTARIO PARTY CANDIDATE FOR NIAGARA WEST

NAME: Daniel Dale

AGE: Not provided RIDING: Niagara West PARTY: Ontario Party OCCUPATION: Operations supervisor

RESIDENCE: Grimsby PAST POLITICAL EXPERIENCE: I spent a large part of my life working and living in Latin America, while my wife practised medicine as a missionary doctor in poor communities. I watched in Ecuador as Rafael Correa implemented socialism. I saw the playbook, and what I see happening in Ontario looks a lot like what I saw in Ecuador under Rafael Correa. Scary times.

HOW WOULD YOU GRADE THE PROVINCE'S COVID-19 RESPONSE AND WHY?

FLockdowns were the

most destructive event that our province has ever endured. The zero COVID strategy left more in ruin than were saved. The heavy cost to human life and soul catastrophic. The damage to the economy equally catastrophic. Constant shifting narratives and guidelines proved that the entire premise of scientific integrity was unfounded.

IF ELECTED, WHAT DO YOU PLEDGE TO DO?

I pledge to give hope and joy to the people of Niagara West. The neverending dread that an overzealous government will again reach into the lives of families and workers to take control and bring them to their knees weighs heavily on a man. The job of healing divided families, friends and coworkers has got to start. Unity is a Canadian value. We help each other to shovel driveways. We help each other when times are bad. COVID has driven a wedge between so many people unnecessarily. It is time to bring families, friends, and coworkers back together again.
