When Peel Poverty Action Group challenged all 34 Mississauga candidates to spend a night on the streets to raise awareness of poverty in Peel only Michelle accepted the challenge, and spent a cold, rainy night on the streets with two other candidates from Brampton West.
When it comes to social programs Peel is not funded to an equitable level. All 34 provincial candidates from Mississauga were invited to an all-candidates forum hosted by the Fair Share for Peel task force, Peel Children's Centre, Nexus Youth Services and United Way of Peel to discuss this issue and their party's plan to get a "fair share" for Peel. Only Michelle accepted the invitation. Five others sent their regrets and 28 candidates didn't even bother to respond.
