PERON
Mathieu Peron, 25, is a draftsman for the City of Greater Sudbury and a union steward for CUPE 4705.

His party seeks to continue the tradition of the Progressive Conservative party, which ceased to exist with the merger of the Canadian Alliance and PC parties in December 2003.

Peron said in a press release that his party wants to improve health care by returning funding back to 1993-94 levels and setting up an independent body to report on standards of care.

The Progressive Canadian Party also wants government fiscal responsibility, adequate funding for the military and self-government for aboriginal people.
