Stephane Dion a great Liberal choice...

What an exiciting convention that was. I am happy to say that I was acclaimed National Aboriginal Peoples' Commission Co-President. I look forward to working with Aboriginal members in the party to build our presence, policies and influence within the party and the nation. I am excited about our opportunities to elect more Aboriginal members to Parliament.

I am also pleased to see more younger faces at the senior level of the party. I am happy to hear that my former YLC friends Richard Diamond (Chair - Standing Committee Communications) and Brigitte Legault (Vice-President French) were also elected. They bring a wealth of skills and strengths to the party.

Although I believe all of the candidates had great ideas to offer and will make invaluable members of the "dream team", I beleive Liberal delegates made a smart choice in electing Stephane our new leader. He has been here with the party through thick and thin and has shown that being underestimated is actually positive. I feel good about his chances of leading our party to sucess and hope all Liberals will unite behind him.
