  • It's no idle boast that 60-year-old Ron Ritchie (left) probably knows more York East voters face-to-face than the resident MP, David Collenette, a Liberal. Yesterday, he marked anniversary of first year on federal campaign trail as he introduces himself to Tania and Dan Manigov, and their son, Brett, 2, on the doorstep of Presteign Ave. home. Campaigning from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., almost daily, is not a complete loss -- it's really keeping me fit.
