		Toronto-Danforth MPP Marilyn Churley-NDP is so committed to the new democrats she decided to hyphenate her name.

	Screech, Churley and Clinton
		Churley’s press release claimed that her remarks "helped set the stage for a joint U.S.-Canadian lobby of delegates marching to Congress to press for the introduction of a national, publicly insured health care system in the U.S."
		A strident feminist and dyed-in-the-wool socialist, Churley’s claim to fame as a city of Toronto councillor was banning the bikini from city hall’s Nathan Phillips square.
		Anti-autombile even before the SUV came onto the market, Churley preferred riding her bicycle to work–even when it meant pedalling ahead of a taxpayer-paid limousine sole purpose of which was to carry her briefcase.

	35005 - Beaches-East York
		Churley's reputation, her engagement and knowledge of the area/community, the neighbouring Federal leader, recent positive NDP polling (especially in Toronto) and a weak incumbent still make Churley the money-on favourite.
		Churley again would be a fool not to use this against Harris, and point out for instance that he was the only federal party leader not to attend the Federation of Canadian Municipalities conference in June nor to make any comment at all about the New Deal For Cities.
		With Marilyn Churley running, and the general malaise in the Liberal party that will find many libs sitting on their hands if not switching, I would be flabbergasted to see a lacklustre perrenial backbencher like Minna repeat.

	babble: Marilyn Churley seeks federal nomination in Beaches/East York
		Churley was first elected to city council in 1988, then she ran provincially in '90 and won and now she is taking the next logical step.
		Toronto-Danforth, a seat Churley has held for 15 years, has been a New Democrat stronghold for at least 40 years and will likely remain that way in her absence, Churley said, urging Premier Dalton McGuinty to allow the NDP to retain official status until after a byelection to replace her.
		Marilyn can probably go over the top in Beaches and I'd say Toronto-Danforth is about as safe a seat as there is for the Ontario NDP - particularly in a by-election where the "strategic voting" arguments don't play very large since you're not electing a government.

		What is really bizarre about the NDP wanting to own the Windsor casino is the fact that almost 20 casino operators from the U.S. and Europe have already said they are prepared to risk their own money to build a casino in Windsor if they are granted a licence to do so by the province.
		Churley has been studying casinos for more than a year and has sent several of her officials on fact-finding missions to Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
		In what he thought was a confidential letter to Churley, Drainville wrote to her on behalf of a constituent who wants a casino licence.

		Churley is convinced the city is intent on putting an incinerator, or a similar, newer garbage-disposal process called Advanced Thermal Technology (ATT), in the southern part of her riding.
		It's an issue on which Churley is a veteran, having started her political career during the successful fight in the 1980s to close an incinerator on Commissioners Street.
		The matter is returning to haunt City Hall these days because of the work of a committee called the New and Emerging Technologies, Policies and Practices Advisory Group, which was set up in February to investigate alternatives to landfills for the city's garbage.

		And if any strategic voting is going on, Churley says it's from Conservatives voting NDP just to keep the Liberals from getting in in an area where they know the Tories just can't go the distance.
