Henri M. Sader is a long-time member of the New Democratic Party in Ottawa, and was its candidate for Ottawa South in the 39th Canadian federal election. He was born and raised in war-torn Lebanon. His mother was Hungarian.

Sader was educated at the College Notre Dame de Jamhour, and at St. Joseph University in Beirut and earned his PhD in economics from the Sorbonne University in Paris, France, in 1980. Sader emigrated to Canada in 1982 and first settled in Toronto. In 1986, he moved to Montreal to work with Carrefour des Cèdres, a non-governmental organization which promotes socio-economic development. In Montreal, he lectured at Concordia University, worked as an economist and researcher for the Jesuit Centre for Social Analysis, and wrote for the magazine Relations, which comments on politics, religion and society from a social justice point of view.

Since 1990, Sader has been active in the New Democratic Party at both the local and national level. He campaigned in many elections for Elisabeth Arnold, Marion Dewar, Evelyn Gigantes, Jamey Heath, John Rodriguez and Lorne Nystrom. In addition, over the last 15 years, he worked as a researcher, executive and legislative assistant for several NDP Members of Parliament – including John Rodriguez (Nickel Belt, Ontario; 1972 1980; 1984–1993), Lorne Nystrom (Yorkton—Melville, Saskatchewan; 1968–1993; 1997–2004) and Peter Julian (Burnaby—New Westminster, British Columbia; since 2004).

During his time on Parliament Hill, Sader played a key role in helping the House of Commons to pass an NDP motion on the so-called "Tobin tax", making Canada the first legislature in the world to do so. Nobel Prize Laureat James Tobin developed the "Tobin tax", which proposes to tax on cross-border currency transactions to reduce economically harmful currency speculation, stabilize the global economy and currency system, and raise revenues for cash-strapped governments around the world. Sader promoted "practical economics" for ordinary consumers and citizens as a contributing editor of Lorne Nystrom's 1999 book, Just Making Change, which makes sense of complex financial issues.

Since 2001, Henri has taught economics at the Labour College of Canada to prepare students with for advancing the cause of trade unions.

Paul Summerville is an economist who has held high positions in several prominent banks, including chief economist for RBC Dominion Securities. Summerville ran in the Toronto riding of St. Paul's. He placed third after Liberal incumbent Carolyn Bennett and Conservative Peter Kent. His campaign increased NDP vote to the highest level in the history of the riding.

Summerville's candidacy was controversial within the party; some believed that his history with large banks was contrary to the NDP's core leftist values, while others believed that he would help rid the party of its image of being financially irresponsible. Most agreed, however, that his twinning of 'prosperity and justice' was a reformulation of long-term party values that have helped position the NDP to take power. It is no coincidence that the issue of fiscal responsibility never came up as an issue for the NDP in the election but in fact was a key criticism of the Conservative Party's platform. More than once on national television Summerville promised that it would be the NDP that would 'keep on eye' on the Conservatives in order to alert the country to a risk of a Conservative Party federal fiscal deficit.

Summerville is the great-nephew of former Toronto mayor Donald Dean Summerville.

In June 2000, McIntaggart introduced a strongly worded motion that criticized the provincial government of Mike Harris for its failure to reappoint Gerry Lougheed Jr. to the board of directors of Cancer Care Ontario. The motion, which also commended Lougheed for his advocacy of patient rights in Northern Ontario, was approved by city council.^[38] McIntaggart later criticized the provincial government's welfare policies, describing their provision for lifetime bans as unjust.^[39]

McIntaggart was appointed vice-chair of Great Sudbury's priorities committee in December 2002, and was re-appointed as Health Unit chair the following month.^[40] He was defeated in his bid for re-election in 2003 and later indicated that his anti-smoking stance was at least partly to blame for the result.^[41]

McIntaggart subsequently ran for the New Democratic Party in the 2004 and 2006 federal elections.^[42] On both occasions, he finished second to incumbent Liberal Diane Marleau.^[43] He was renominated again as the party's candidate in the next election, but stepped down, citing the desire to spend more time with his family, in July 2008.

McIntaggart was also elected to the Sudbury City Council in 1991, 1994 and 1997.
