FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
--November 17th, 2010-

Well-known television journalist Darryl Konynenbelt is announcing his intention to seek the PC party nomination in the riding of Mississauga. Darryl is an active professional member of the local community having served as the bureau chief for Global News for the past year.

Darryl believes another four years of liberal rule is not healthy for Mississauga-South. "This community's well-being is rooted in how we unite together to ensure our families breathe the cleanest air, receive the best job opportunities and have access to high-quality health care facilities," says Darryl. "I am personally committed to issues that affect our environment, the economy, and to healthcare."

While Darryl has never run for public office before, he is no stranger to politics, spending more than twenty years as a journalist covering elections, and other prevalent political stories in Alberta, BC and Ontario. He and his wife Anne-Marie are raising triplets Libby, Annabel and Maxim and have balanced their professional careers with solid family values.

"The time to run is now," says Darryl. "I'm committed to ensure we don't face another 4 years of Liberal rule in this province; liberal rule that has forced the good people of Mississauga-South to needlessly fear for their families health, safety and future prosperity."

Darryl is also committed to fighting reckless liberal government spending, unprecedented levels of taxation and helping Ontario rebuild to a "have" province through the creation of solid, private sector jobs.

"Ontarians are worried about the future," says Darryl. "The opportunities once offered in this great province are fading into distant memory. We need to rebuild and we need to provide the kind of tax relief needed to give people the confidence to spend again. It's time for the people of Mississauga-South to have their say and it's time for a candidate who will listen."

From the environment, to education, healthcare and the economy, Darryl is committed to working hard for Mississauga -South and ensuring you have a voice at Queen's Park.
