Retro Thursday’s @ Ultra – Campaign For Haiti

This is an open invitation for city councillors, political operatives, and candidates running in the 2010 municipal election to suspend the campaign for one night and instead “Campaign for Haiti”

This will be an opportunity for all candidates, left, right, and centre, to get together in common cause to raise money for the Red Cross Disaster Relief for Haiti Fund. The federal government has pledged to match funds raised by the public.

Leverage your political capital and raise real capital to provide relief for the people of Haiti… There will be no speeches, no stumping, just compassion.

UPDATE

Campaign for Haiti, which started out with the support of one councillor candidate Rob Davis, has grown exponentially in the past week. Mayoral candidates George Smitherman, Sarah Thomson, Rocco Rossi, Rocco Ashampong, Mark State and Giorgio Mammolit, along with Councillor John Parker have all pledged to put their personal campaigns on hold to instead campaign for the people of Haiti.

This is an opportunity for all candidates and supporters to get together in a common cause to raise money for the Red Cross Relief for Haiti Fund. It has been just over a week since the devastating quake struck Haiti, with the latest estimate offered by the European Union citing 200,000 people dead and 1.5 million people rendered homeless. Many earthquake victims are still dying due to the lack of medical attention, food and basic sanitary conditions. The Canadian Federal Government has pledged $50 Million to match all funds raised by the public, meaning every dollar Campaign for Haiti raises will be doubled. Leverage your political capital and raise real capital to provide relief for the people of Haiti…There will be no speeches, no stumping, just compassion.
