Thank you all for coming.
My name is Dr. Sushil Jain, and I am the Chair of the newly formed Candidate Nominating Committee of the Conservative Party of Canada of Windsor West. I am joined with CNC members Al Teshuba, Cameron Adamson, and Tony Francis, and with ready to serve committee alternatives Henry Lau and Rick Wilkinson.
First, I would like to congratulate our friends in our neighbouring ridings of the Ontario PC Party of Essex in electing Anthony Leardi last night, and to further extend our congratulations to Windsor-Tecumseh in acclaiming Andrew Dowie, earlier tonight.
We are seeing Windsor-Essex getting ready to turn our region more BLUE!...by sending more regional conservative representatives to join Chris Lewis, in representing us in Ottawa and in Queen’s Park.
These are exciting times, and we have terrific news to advance our regional Blue Wave!
Earlier this month, our committee met with our Regional Organizer Stephaine Cattrysse, to officially recognize our CNC, so we can begin our candidate search of qualified nomination contestants to become the next Windsor West CPC Candidate. All CNC members have pledged to be neutral throughout this process. Its role is as fair facilitators of this process, not as selectors.
Applications packages must be submitted to the National Party no later than 5PM ET, 14 days after Closing Notice is issued. Applicants approved by the National Candidate Selection Committee become official nominees who will then seek to win the majority of votes of Windsor West CPC members to be elected the Candidate.
Our Candidate Nominating Committee would love to speak with anyone interested in seeking the nomination. As our Closing Notice could be issued any time, and the threat of a Spring election, we’d like any interested individuals to provide their statements, by January 15th, 2021 as campaign readiness is paramount.
Our Conservative Party grassroots nomination and candidate selection process is instrumental to our party’s success, and to our democratic fair and transparent guiding principles. Our Conservative brand and local support are growing in Windsor-Essex and we would be best served with more Conservative MPs representing our region, under the leadership of Erin O’Toole.
NOTE: The deadline for submitting a complete application to National Headquarters is 14 days after Closing Notice is issued, and the Executive Director issues the official Closing Notice.
Anyone seeking more information about the nomination process, can contact myself CNC Chair- Dr. Sushil Jain, Sushil@WindsorWestCPC.com, 519-966-2474, or EDA Riding President - Al Teshuba, Al@WindsorWestCPC.com 519-259-9322
Thank you for your continued interest and support of our great Conservative Party and our Windsor West riding association.
On November 25th, 8:30pm at (Holiday Inn Ambassador Conference Room, 1855 Huron Church Rd) The Campaign Nominating Committee (CNC) of the Windsor West Conservative Party Electoral District Association, shall be officially announcing its formation from its elected Chair, Dr. Sushil Jain.
The CNC invites qualified interested nominees whom wish to become the next Windsor West CPC Candidate, to successfully complete the nomination/candidate application (to be reviewed by CPC HQ). If approved, nominees can then seek to win the majority of votes of Windsor West CPC members at a future Nomination Night event, and then become the Candidate.
The CNC would ideally like to receive interested nominees’ statements of interest, by January 15th, 2021, as the follow-up process takes time. Considering there is currently a minority federal government, campaign readiness is paramount.
“Our Conservative Party grassroots candidate selection process is instrumental to our party’s success, and to our democratic fair and transparent guiding principles. Our Conservative brand and local support are growing in our Windsor-Essex region, and we would be best served with more Conservative MPs representing our region, in the next Erin O’Toole Conservative Federal government.”, says Jain.
NOTE: The deadline for submitting a complete application to National Headquarters is 14 days after Closing Notice is issued, and the Executive Director issues the official Closing Notice.
Anyone seeking more information about this nomination process, can contact the CNC or EDA President.
Dr. Sushil Jain, Sushil@WindsorWestCPC.com, 519-966-2474 or
Al Teshuba, president@WindsorWestCPC.com 519-259-9322
At the November 25th, 2020 announcement, all COVID-19 related precautions will be observed.
The Honourable Andrew Scheer, Leader of Canada’s Conservatives and of the Official Opposition, issued the following statement:
“Since the beginning of this crisis, Conservatives have been focused on Canadians and getting them the support they desperately need. We recognize that these are unprecedented times and that urgent action is needed. Almost a million Canadians have already been laid off, stores and restaurants have been told to close their doors, and Canadians have been told to stay at home. We also know that this crisis has hit our economy hard and that the months to come will be difficult.
“That is why Conservatives have been flexible in our approach, while also continuing to ensure government oversight.
“When we agreed to the extraordinary suspension of Parliament, Conservatives insisted that the government be subject to substantial accountability measures including that the Auditor General would audit any new spending, that parliamentary committees would be able to review all of that spending when Parliament resumes, that parliamentary committees could be recalled at any time, and that the government must immediately inform the Opposition of any spending and make it public within seven days.
“We also agreed to bring back the House of Commons this week with only a small number of Members present. We were prepared to quickly pass the measures that the Prime Minister had announced to date. What we were not prepared for was the government’s attempted undemocratic power grab.
“The Liberals shamefully tried to use a public health crisis to give themselves the powers to raise taxes, debt and spending without parliamentary approval until January 1, 2022. But after hours of negotiation, the government has backed down.
“Conservatives have secured the following concessions:
“Our effective Opposition has also gotten the government to reverse course on other policies.
“Conservatives called for stronger action to protect our borders and the government responded. We asked about the impact of the border closure on the temporary foreign worker and seasonal agricultural worker programs and the government made exemptions. We called on the government to stop the flow of illegal border crossers into Canada, particularly at Roxham Road, and the government listened.
“We will continue to use all of the tools available to us to hold the government to account. And we will continue to use our strengthened Opposition to ask tough questions on behalf of Canadians and put forward constructive solutions to ensure that no one falls through the cracks.”
“We welcome Sandra to the race. Together we can explain to the voters of the Windsor-Essex region the absolute ineffectiveness of having third Party NDP MP representatives, who do not have access or say in the government.
It is imperative that the Windsor Essex region gain access once again. In the next Andrew Scheer Conservative federal government, newly local elected Conservative MPs will deliver local issues directly to the government they form part of and will deliver results for our region!
Vote Henry Lau in Windsor West!
Vote Leo DeMarce in Windsor-Tecumseh
Vote Chris Lewis in Essex!
Our region deserves better than ineffective NDP reps."
After an extensive review process from a nominee's campaign appeal, our Windsor West CPC EDA has now received official confirmation from National CPC HQ that this appeal has been ruled and the nominee appeal process is officially over.
Our Windsor West CPC EDA will be making a public announcement of such on Tuesday June 25th at 7pm at the Holiday Inn (1855 Huron Church Rd main floor conference room), with additional detail and to answer questions.
We will also declare and announce our official Windsor West CPC 2019 candidate Henry Lau, whom will speak right afterwards (along with the official CPC candidates from our neighbouring ridings, Chris Lewis ESSEX and Leo Demarce WINDSOR-TECUMSEH).
All media and public are welcome to attend. Doors open 6:45pm.
For more information, please contact Al Teshuba, President of Windsor West CPC EDA Riding Association. 519.259.9322, Al@WindsorWestCPC.com
The CPC EDA WW Nomination Night event on June 9th was very exciting and interactive. Both nominees Rinku Shah and Henry Lau provided excellent answers to all of the panel’s nine pre-determined questions, and the several audience questions to follow. Their opening and closing speeches were dynamic and filled with applause from the Holiday Inn Conference room.
Members’ voting registration and verification was run by CPC regional organizer David Dillon, whom put together a team of out-of-riding neutral volunteers for such. Timelines were followed as advertised and which were posted on the website in advance. Ballots were counted 3 times in a separate room, with each nominee’s scrutineers as witnesses.
NOTE: Al Teshuba, President of the WW EDA, and Khassan Saka, Chair of the Nominating Committee, were moderators of the panel questions, declared neutrality and thus did not vote.
At 9:15pm, Al Teshuba had a special board of directors’ meeting, to add additional board members (including members of both nominees’ campaign team).
Minutes afterwards, David Dillon came into the conference room and declared that Henry Lau was to be the WW candidate, based on receiving most of the eligible ballot votes cast.
Shortly afterwards, Al Teshuba received a text from the Shah campaign that they were disappointed with the way the Election went, and would be filing an appeal within 24 hours (which is the right of any nominee to do so within 24 hours, to review the election process accordingly).
More information and updates to follow.

Third Party NDP local representation has proven to be ineffective, and Windsor cannot continue to be left behind!
Join us tomorrow -Friday, February 22nd, at 4:30 pm at the Holiday Inn -Main Floor Conference Room, for Public/Press Conference and Q&A.
The Following are approved Windsor West EDA local advocacy policies and positions for the 2019 federal election campaign:
1. Increased funding for security at the border, our local police, and the RCMP, due to new legalization of cannabis and the ever-growing border traffic in Windsor.
2. Stronger advocacy for the TIMELY construction of the Gordie Howe International crossing, to reduce international truck traffic on our city streets (getting to the Ambassador Bridge).
3. More CBSA officers at the border for more efficient trade flow, increased security and less traffic.
4. Greater emphasis (possibly through incentives and/or lower taxes) to attract manufacturing jobs to Windsor-Essex, recognizing that we have an excellent skilled trade workforce, and an intrinsic geographical location to distribute product around North America.
5. Legalization of Single Sports Betting. This would be to support Caesars Windsor which employees about 5000 workers and to to remain competitive as Michigan will soon legalize SSB. With all three casinos in Detroit planning on participating, legalization is imperative. In addition, this will decrease organized crime running illegal sports betting and decrease offshore wagering accounts. The legalization of SSB in Canada will increase tourism in Windsor.
6. Increased local funding for immigration, integration and other social services for newcomers. Windsor has one of the highest rates per capita of new Canadians. To allow this multi-cultural experience to flourish, Windsor requires more funding from Federal Government.
7. Advocacy for more Federal Government establishments such as offices and agencies to create more jobs in the region.
