One, two, three, four, Grammy winner Leslie Feist is knocking on your door, Thursday, Aug. 20 with NDP MP Andrew Cash in Toronto’s Davenport riding.

Long time acquaintances — for over 20 years — Feist said in a press release issued by the party that Cash “is an outspoken defender of arts and culture, which includes stable funding for the CBC.”

She added that, “he’s my neighbour and has been an honest and reliable MP, true to his word in representing our community’s concerns and how they echo throughout the rest of the country.”

Feist is not the only Canadian musician getting involved in this federal election. Last week Raffi Cavoukian released his song “I Want My Canada Back!” which now has over 18, 000 views on YouTube.

And Juno award winner Chantal Kreviazuk has shown her support for Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau — when in a December 2014 fundraising press release she said “I trust the future with Justin. He is every bit a great student and listener as he is a teacher, which I think is key for someone to be a leader.”
