	Vic Toews - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Toews was hired by the University of Manitoba in 1987 as a lecturer, and taught classes in labour law and employment law.
		Toews argued that the proposal would reduce the number of repeat offenders, and said that it was "sensitive to the needs of the aboriginal community".
		Toews formally joined the Alliance in the buildup to the 2000 federal election and defeated four other candidates to win the party's nomination for Provencher, a mostly rural riding in southeastern Manitoba.

		Toews is doing a solid job, and has been playing a major role in the public accounts committee, gaining him some good visibility.
		Toews will benefit from his party's social conservative appeal(much as Iftody was able to hold this riding pre-2000 for the Libs by playing up his social conservative credentials).

		The Liberals are circulating comments from a 2003 interview with Vic Toews on a Christian radio program in the United States in which the Tory justice critic accused ``radical liberal judges'' of usurping parliamentary authority on same-sex marriage.
		Toews also appeared to advocate use of the so-called notwithstanding clause of the Constitution to override court decisions favourable to same-sex unions.
		Toews, considered a good bet to become justice minister if his party takes power, rejected claims that he would politicize the judiciary and appoint only judges who share his view of the law.
