I recently stopped by the campaign office of Emmanuel Dubourg in Montréal and I had a great conversation with Pierre Lajeunesse, the campaign manager for the Bourassa by-election.  In addition to having a great chat about the situation on the ground, the history of the riding, and Québec politics in general, we

I had a conversation with the owner of a restaurant I visited while here in Halifax. Conversations like this one keep me motivated to do everything I can to get Justin Trudeau and a Liberal government elected. It started off as a conversation about Rob Ford, but when he found

I had a great weekend in Whistler at the LPCBC convention with all my BC Liberal friends, and I’ll have a post up about that experience later this week.  But I wanted to take a couple of moments and let you know about my visits to the two Manitoba by-elections.

What a great afternoon!   Terry Hayward, President of the Provencher Federal Liberal Association took my on a tour of his (very large) riding as we discussed the challenges the Liberals face in the upcoming by-election.  I am very much my Father’s son, so driving through around looking at farms
