I lived in Trinity Spadina riding for 5-years before I knew who our local provincial MPP was. I'm politically engaged and I had no idea who represented our riding in Queen's Park. Rosario Marchese is the NDP local MLA. If you have never heard of him that is not a reflection on you. This guy could not be more invisible. If we sent an orange pylon to Queen's Park we would be better off. A rainbow butt monkey would be of more use. At least it would be entertaining.
I worked with a guy that was once an assistant to a Windsor Liberal MLA. Fellow Liberals had a nickname for the former Liberal MPP for Trinity Spadina, Tony Ianno, the name was The Empty Chair. Rosario Marchese is less engaged than Tony Ianno.
The fact that we can't elect a person better than Rosario Marchese is a disgrace. We deserve better. I'm asking local Italians in my riding not to vote for a guy because he is an ethnic Italian. Every single Italian Canadian that has represented us has been a disgrace. Tony Ianno, Joe Pantalone, Rosario Marchese, all of them empty suits, men without substance and a solid work ethic. Invisible reps that collect a paycheque but do nothing for the riding.
I'm begging you Italian Canadians to look beyond the ethnic background of the local candidate and vote for competence. Rosario Marchese is not good enough to represent you or me at Queen's Park. We can and should do better.
