    Hi David,

    Thanks for your call of today. I advised Sean of it and your
    concerns. He is very busy right now doing the door to door visits
of the campaign. Please watch on election night and when he becomes
part of the NS Legislature, it might be a better time for him to look
at addressing your concerns.

    Dear Mr. Amos:

    Thank you for your interest in Calum MacKenzie as the NDP
candidate for Annapolis.

    We appreciate views from all of the residents of Annapolis
    constituency and welcome lively and interesting debate on issues
    affecting our communities. Having said that, and as I was trying to
    explain to you on the phone, George W. Bush and the US government
do not fall under the influence of provincial MLAs and policy.

    We are fighting a provincial campaign. You'll not likely find one
NDP member defending Bush, however, it is simply not a provincial
matter.

    I would like to let you know, in a formal way, that your threats to
    sue Mr. MacKenzie, your aggresive behaviour on the phone and your
    inappropriate language in the emails are not appreciated.

    As the campaign manager for Mr. MacKenzie I feel I must inform you
    that this campaign will not tolerate intimidating, aggressive or
threatening behaviour from anyone and any such acts will be acted upon
in the future.

    Hi David. My name is James and I have been asked to send this
message onto you from Paul…

    Dear Mr. Amos,

    Thank you for informing me of your concerns regarding Canada 's role
    in Afghanistan after February 2007.

    The NDP voted against this motion because we believe it is the wrong
    mission for Canada . It does not reflect the peace-making values
that Canadians want to see our forces undertake on the world stage.
This forced motion essentially ties our aid and development funds to
war-making, and we cannot support that.

    It is quite clear that Harper's Conservatives aren't interested in
due diligence. They're interested in dragging us further into a
US-style combat role and away from our traditional peace keeping role.
Much like the Liberals before them, the Conservatives have failed to
tell Canadians:

    - What the chain of command and control will be for this mission.

    - What the definition of success will be for our troops.

    - What our exit strategy will be.

    Many Canadians have written me wanting answers and it is our duty
as representatives of our constituents, to get answers before
committing to any new missions overseas. As any soldier knows, time
spent on reconnaissance is never wasted.

    New Democrats recognize that Canada does have a role in assisting
Afghanis in rebuilding their country. Afghanistan is the largest
recipient of Canadian overseas development aid and we fully support
the continuation of that funding - outside of this mission.

    Thank you again for the time and effort you have taken to share your
    thoughts with me, and for bringing your opinion on this matter to my
    attention.

    Sincerely,

    Paul Dewar, MP Ottawa Centre

    Hey

    Before all the Parliamentarians argue and then vote to support
    further Canadian deaths in one of George W. Bush's Wars for Global
    Control for the benefit of his corporate cohorts perhaps, you
should at least listen to the attachments if you do not wish to bother
to read what Billy Casey and the Bankers got on May 12th. If I can
assist in preventing the demise of just one more Canadian warrior in a
malicious foreign war, all of my work will have been worth it EH?

    If everyone ignores me as usual, I will not be surprised. At least
I will sleep well with my conscience tonight because I know I have
done my very best to stop the nonsense since early 2002 long before
the War in Iraq began. None of you deserve to sleep well at all
    because you all supported Harper's orders to send our people to war
    even before the 39th Parliament sat this year. As far as I am
    concerned the blood of four very honourable soldiers can be found on
    your hands. Shame on all of you for not even bothering to honour
our dead by lowering the flag on the Peacetower. As long as I have
been aware and could consider myself a Proad Canadian, I thought we
were peacekeepers rather than poorly paid hired guns for crooked
    corporations, corrupt politicians and their wicked Yankee bible
    pounding buddies.

    Deja Vu Anyone? Anyone?

    That's what John Crosbie wore in 1979, the last time a budget
brought down a Canadian government in a minority-Parliament situation.
It proved to be a bad omen, given that the Conservative government of
the day foundered on Crosbie's document.

    The mukluks proved to be symbolic of Joe Clark's short-lived
    administration -- overconfident and blind to convention. As Crosbie
    observed in his memoirs, Clark "decided to govern as though we had
a majority, a decision that was as arrogant as it was presumptuous."

Politician, advocate, husband and father Paul Dewar succumbs to brain cancer

Former MP went public with glioblastoma diagnosis in June 2018

When former Ottawa Centre MP Paul Dewar was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer early in 2018, he was given some straightforward advice: Face death and walk back into life.

Dewar, who died at 5:15 a.m. Wednesday, did both, with all the dignity and purpose he could muster.
According to a statement from his family issued Wednesday, Dewar was with his wife, Julia Sneyd, and sons Nathaniel and Jordan when he died.


He was 56 years old.


CBC News
Paul Dewar, politician and advocate, has died
 Diagnosed with terminal brain cancer early in 2018, Paul Dewar has died. 3:03

Before his death, Dewar wrote a letter that his family posted on Facebook Wednesday. He said his illness made him truly appreciate the beauty in the world.

"I told you that I thought my illness was a gift and I genuinely meant that. In this time in between, I got to see the wonder of the world around us."

On Feb. 14, 2018, Dewar underwent surgery to remove a large tumour caused by the same incurable brain cancer that had killed Tragically Hip frontman Gord Downie just a few months earlier.
Dewar chose to go public with his glioblastoma diagnosis in June 2018. He won widespread praise for facing his impending death with courage and grace, and for his resolute approach to the time he had left.

"It's Grade 4, which is terminal. There is no cure," Dewar told Robyn Bresnahan, host of CBC Radio's Ottawa Morning. In the same interview he also revealed he'd undergone the full range of treatment, including surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.

"Then you hope for the best in terms of how much time you have to live."


As the disease progressed, Dewar's brain tumour affected his motor control, impairing movement in his left arm. Because he was left-handed, tying shoes and writing became more difficult. (Giacomo Panico/CBC)

Strong voice for human rights 


The support and admiration he received during his illness crossed party lines.

In an interview with Rosemary Barton, host of CBC's The National, Dewar spoke of how MPs had reached out and shown him "love and support" in his illness — including Environment Minister Catherine McKenna, who defeated Dewar in Ottawa Centre in 2015.

"While we may sit on different sides of the aisle, we're all colleagues together," a visibly shaken McKenna said in the House of Commons after news broke of Dewar's diagnosis.


Dewar, seen here during question period in the House of Commons in April 2013, was a strong advocate for human rights around the world and often berated the government for what he saw as Canada's failings abroad. (Sean Kilpatrick/Canadian Press)

Politics in the family


Politics was a family affair for the former teacher. His mother was former MP and Ottawa mayor Marion Dewar. Dewar won the Ottawa Centre riding in the January 2006 federal election, taking over from former NDP leader Ed Broadbent.

On his first day on the job, Dewar told CBC he was aware of the high expectations resting on his shoulders.

"Yes, there is a gulp in my throat," he said.

Dewar retained his seat through the 2008 and 2011 elections, winning a reputation as an engaging, down-to-earth politician.

Opposition critic


Then-opposition leader Jack Layton appointed Dewar foreign affairs critic, and he continued to hector the Conservative government over Canada's failure to intervene in social injustices around the world.

During his nine years in office, Dewar championed many causes. He called on the Conservatives to denounce Uganda after its parliament introduced an anti-LGBT bill that included life in prison for those convicted. He spoke out against the mass murder of civilians in the Darfur region of Sudan. He criticized human rights abuses in Iran and Saudi Arabia, to which Canada had sold armoured vehicles.

He also condemned Canada's dwindling role in global peacekeeping, penning an editorial chiding the Conservatives for "a pattern of disengagement and withdrawal from the international community" and warning of the dire consequences of Canada's new "arrogant isolationism."


Paul Dewar's mother, former Ottawa mayor Marion Dewar, spearheaded Project 4000, a campaign that brought 4,000 refugees fleeing Vietnam to Ottawa under private sponsorship. (CBC)
Dewar also refused to remain silent on issues closer to home, such as the raw sewage that for years had flowed into the Ottawa River during heavy downpours, the city's lack of cycling infrastructure and the need for affordable housing at LeBreton Flats.

Dewar was also a vocal defender of federal public servants, especially when it came to threats against the independence of government scientists.

After Layton's death in August 2011, Dewar announced his candidacy for NDP leader, but withdrew after finishing poorly on the first ballot.

Advocate for refugees


Dewar watched in 1979 as his mother, then mayor, spearheaded Project 4000, a campaign to bring 4,000 desperate Vietnamese "boat people" to Ottawa. In 2015, Dewar picked up that mantle, urging the Conservative government to fast-track thousands of Syrian refugees fleeing that country's bloody civil war.

Speaking in 2015, the day after photos of three-year-old Syrian refugee Alan Kurdi's corpse on a Turkish beach horrified the world, Dewar issued a call to action.
"Sometimes it takes that kind of image, and it was those images that my mother saw on the TV in 1979 that pushed her to act," Dewar said.

Dewar often acknowledged his mother's strong influence on his own politics.

"My mom was a strong feminist, and she said something very important and I learned at an early age:

Don't be afraid of power, know how to use and share it, and give it to those who don't have it."


Paul Dewar is flanked by his family after losing Ottawa Centre to Liberal Catherine McKenna in October 2015. (CBC News)

Created youth movement


After going public with his diagnosis, Dewar created Youth Action Now, an initiative to raise money to help engage young people to get involved in their communities. That movement will be among his lasting legacies.

As his disease progressed, Dewar took part in an immunotherapy drug trial at a Gatineau, Que., clinic aimed at prolonging his life.

"I really want more time with those two guys and Julia," Dewar told CBC, his voice cracking with emotion.

"If I could steal more time, and hopefully I will, that's what I want."

A celebration of Dewar's life is expected to be announced in the coming days.
