	Mario Silva - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Silva's move to federal politics was not without controversy, however, as it saw him claim the Liberal nomination in Davenport instead of popular Liberal incumbent Charles Caccia in a process that saw widespread allegations of unfairness.
		Caccia's leftist and strongly pro-environment views clashed with the direction in which Martin intended to move the party.
		Silva signed up enough new members to likely defeat Caccia in a nomination battle; Caccia instead chose not to file to be the party's candidate, and after mulling running in the election against Silva as a Green candidate or as an Independent, announced his retirement from politics.

	on-Davenport
		Caccia gives those Liberals who were disgruntled about Silva's rise a safe protest vote: they don't have to vote for Silva, but also don't have to vote NDP to register their unhappiness.
		Caccia has been a fixture since 1968 and this will help him as will the fact that a lot of local Liberals do not like Silva and will be be motivated to work for Caccia out of loyalty to him or spite towards Silva.
		Caccia still retains a lot of support and sympathy especially from the northern half of Davenport, especially amongst long-time Liberals and the large voter turnout of the Italian population.

	eye - Caccia's ghost - 06.17.04
		The last of the Trudeau Liberals, Caccia has represented Davenport since 1968, swept in by Trudeaumania, and, in addition to being a constant environmental gadfly, Caccia is known as one of the best constituency politicians in the country -- his is considered by some to be the safest Liberal seat in Canada.
		There's a widespread perception that Caccia, like other Chrétien loyalists including Shiela Copps, was forced out of the seat during a nasty nomination contest this spring that saw the nomination go to former Toronto city councillor and Martin team-player Mario Silva.
		Both support cities and think we need to protect the environment, both are in favour of same-sex marriage and free choice on abortion, both feel that immigration assistance and constituency work will be the key elements of their prospective terms in Parliament.

		Charles Caccia was first elected to public office as a member of City of Toronto and Metro Council in December 1964, he was re-elected in 1966.
		Caccia always preaches the importance and value of democracy and I am quite upset he wants to participate in such a charade," said Mr.
		The fight for the nomination is clearly going to be an uphill battle for the longtime MP from Toronto-Davenport, as witnessed by the recent leadership vote where his candidate of choice, Sheila Copps, garnered support in the very low double digits.

	Council for Biotechnology Information
		The demise of Liberal MP Charles Caccia's Bill C-287 is welcome news not only for Saskatoon, where the laudable work of more than 600 scientists has made it Canada's leading ag-biotech centre, but for Canadians in general.
		Caccia's assertion that ``mandatory labelling is relevant to human health'' is off-base.
		To indicate on a label that a food is ``genetically modified'' gives no useful information, especially when current regulations require consumers to be alerted to any changes in the nutritional value or chemical composition of the food and warned of any safety concerns, such as the presence of an allergen.

		When Toronto Liberal MP and former environment minister Charles Caccia presented to Parliament the latest version of his private member's bill on mandatory labelling of genetically modified foods last month, he said it is just a matter of time until mandatory labelling is approved.
		It happened because Caccia's latest proposal to approve mandatory GM labelling in principle, introduced in early October, was looked at by a committee of MPs that determines the status of private member's bills.
		A year ago, an earlier version of Caccia's bill was defeated 126-91 but only after a fierce and time-consuming lobby by agriculture and food manufacturing groups and the biotechnology industry, as well as some heavy arm-twisting by Liberal leaders to keep MPs in line.

	babble: Charles Caccia
		I would maintain that if Caccia were to run as an independant, or even join the NDP to help us fight Mario Silva and the Martain machine, he would NOT be abandoning his principles or 'moving over'- quite the contrary.
		Caccia is an authentic Trudeau era Liberal - and a very progressive one at that.
		I was a bit angry because I seriously thought that Caccia was angling for a plum patronage job in return for keeping his mouth shut and walking away from the Davenport election (has the opening at the Danish embassy been filled yet?).
