=Camilo Tiqui (Parkdale)=
Tiqui was a perennial candidate for public office in Toronto. He was an intelligence officer in the Philippine military, and moved to Canada in 1976. He later worked for De Havilland as an aircraft technologist. Tiqui was fifty-one years old in 1987, and campaigned in favour of a more equitable system of taxation. ["The choices in Metro", "Toronto Star", 7 September 1987, A8.]
He tried to challenge Sergio Marchi for the Liberal nomination in York West in the 1988 federal election, but was ruled ineligible on the grounds that his nomination papers were misfiled. [Dan Smith, "Liberals in uproar as political rookie signs up 3,000 in bid to oust MP", "Toronto Star", 24 May 1988, A4. The newspaper title does not refer to Taqui.]
Tiqui expressed concern about overpopulation in the Toronto's Black Creek area during the 1988 campaign. [Sterling Taylor, "Wide social gulf runs down Black Creek valley", "Toronto Star", 25 October 1988, A5.] He called for increased mulitcultural programs in 1991. ["School board trustees", "Toronto Star", 7 November 1991, G6.] In addition to the campaigns listed below, Tiqui also applied to become Mario Gentile's replacement on the Metro Toronto Council in 1994 (council chose to appoint Gentile's successor rather than call a by-election). [Gail Swainson, "Tonks to explain role in Gentile scandal", "Toronto Star", 24 August 1994, A6.] He was rejected in favour of another candidate.
Tiqui is active with the Boy Scouts organization. [ [http://www.filipinostar.org/issues/fstar-jun-2005.pdf Col. Camilo Tiqui, "Scouting spirit lives on in Montreal"] , "North American Filipino Star, June 2005, accessed 19 October 2006.]
