Brome—Missisquoi: Mark Quinlan
Mark Quinlan was born in Cowansville, Quebec and raise in Bromont. He has Bachelor's Degrees in civil law and finance and a graduate diploma from Université de Sherbrooke in notarial law.[3] He started his political career in the youth wings of the Quebec Liberal Party and the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada.[4] In 2000, he wrote an editorial defending Jean Charest's record.[5] He joined the newly formed Canadian Alliance in 2000; during that party's first leadership contest, he asked Preston Manning to apologize for the running anti-Quebec advertisements in the previous federal election.[6] Stockwell Day defeated Manning for the party leadership, and Quinlan ran as an Alliance candidate in the 2000 federal election. He was later employed by the party as a press secretary and sided with Day through the party's internal divisions of 2001–02. He was dismissed from office when Stephen Harper succeeded Day as party leader in March 2002.[7]
The Canadian Alliance merged with the more centrist Progressive Conservatives to form the Conservative Party of Canada in 2003. Quinlan joined the new party and worked as an organizer for candidate Peter Stastny in the 2004 federal election.[8] After the Conservatives formed a minority government in 2006, he was hired as a press secretary for Justice Minister Vic Toews.[9] Quinlan followed Toews to a new posting at the Treasury Board of Canada in early 2007.[10] He became the press secretary for Christian Paradis later in the same year and continued to serve with Paradis after the 2008 election.[11] Quinlan ran as a Conservative candidate in 2008, finishing third in Brome—Missisquoi.[12]
His mother, Pauline Quinlan, is the mayor of Bromont.[13]

Parm Gill was born in India and moved to Canada at age fourteen. He has a diploma in Private Investigation and was the senior vice-president of Paramount Manufacturing during his first run for public office in 2006.[14] In 2008, he ran a family-owned business in the hospitality sector. He has volunteered with the Malaysian Singapore Cultural Association and the Peel Regional Police.[15]
Despite his defeat in the 2008 election, Gill accompanied Immigration Minister Jason Kenney on a post-election trip to India. While in Punjab, he told reporters that the Conservatives would reduce the immigration rejection rate for Punjabi youths. Some speculated that this announcement had more to do with political concerns in Canada than with economic recruitment.[16] It is believed that Gill plans to run again in the next federal election.[17]

Sudbury: Gerry Labelle
Gerry Labelle was born in Mattawa and raised in Sudbury. He is a businessperson and community activist in Sudbury, where he operates a consulting firm.[20] Labelle is a founding member of Music and Film in Motion and has served on the board of several non-profit organizations. At the time of the election, he was a member of the Make Poverty History committee on the city's Social Planning Council.[21]
Labelle became involved in a minor controversy during the 2008 campaign when he made statements in a French-language interview that seemed critical of the Conservative government. According to a press release from Liberal incumbent Diane Marleau, Labelle criticized Finance Minister Jim Flaherty for describing Ontario as "the last place" to invest, took issue with the government's decision to abolish the Court Challenges Program of Canada, and said that he was not impressed with the Conservative Party's environmental record. He later issued a retraction, saying that he had not expressed himself clearly and was fully supportive of the Harper government. [22] Labelle also spoke in support of the arts community and rejected arguments that his party was hostile to the arts.[23] Late in the campaign, the Sudbury Star newspaper noted that he "did not come across as a Harper Conservative".[24]
Labelle received 11,073 votes (25.79%), finishing third against New Democratic Party candidate Glenn Thibeault. He has said that he will probably run for Conservatives again.[25]
