As we prepare to cast our votes in the Federal Election next week, myFM is giving you a look at the local candidates running for Elgin-Middlesex-London.
Michael Hopkins represents the Christian Heritage Party of Canada.
myFM has reached out to Michael several times to arrange an interview and we have not heard back from him or his campaign manager. We are posting his official bio from his party website to introduce him to our listeners.
I was born and raised in St Thomas Ontario. After high school, I lived in and around Victoria and Vancouver where I met my wife Wendy, who grew up in Victoria. We now have three children together; Noah, 9, Dorothy, 7, and Jacob, 5. I studied machining practices at Fanshawe College in St Thomas after returning from British Columbia and I am presently working in this field as a General Machinist at a local machine shop. I have also worked in construction and the manufacturing fields. I especially enjoy coaching my children’s baseball teams, playing the piano, and generally being with my family.
I have always been interested conversations surrounding politics and ways to make Canada a better, more prosperous, and compassionate country. When I discovered CHP, I realized how much CHP’s policies reflected my beliefs in these matters. I was moved to become a member right away. I am especially interested in CHP’s policies to put an end to wasteful, corrupt, and unresponsive government, implementing new and fairer tax codes, and bringing forth an atmosphere enabling stay at home child and elder care. CHP’s “Better Solutions” are the only policies being offered to bring about the changes needed the make Canada all that it should be and more.
