Way to go Globe & Mail
In a rare bit of mostly accurate legal reporting, the Globe managed to actually give the case citation for the legal action it reported on. Well done Globe. Well done.
And that’s a shot for anyone playing my Conrad Black Supreme Court Appeal Dr…

“I told you so” doesn’t seem to be polling well. Just saying.
Even if voters believed, correctly, that an increase in support for the NDP favours a Conservative majority, they don’t seem to be kicking themselves about it. This may be the result…

They’re laughing at you, Mr. Hudak. That’s a sign.
Continue readingFederalism is our issue? Really?
It’s my fault. I heard Stephen Harper and Jack Layton call their parties “federalist” enough times that I started to believe it. Sure, they are not seperatist, but why isn’t the Prime Minister jumping on Mr. Layton for this “50% + 1” nonsense. Wh…

Have a look at James Curran today, and vote.
Pity there’s no way to restrict voting to just Liberals, but I am very curious about when people want to choose the next leader.
Also, come June sixth when I’m done school I think I’ll compile a quick l…

Have you?
Also, hashtag needed for this convention. #press7forpointoforder
Suggestions?
Also, a propos of nothing at all, I’m going through a bit of a new music phase. What’s the best new album of the last six months? The lesser known the…

I thought I would have more time. I wasn’t planning to write again until July, but I see the ante has been upped, the party is organizing a new special convention, and the timetable for large-scale party decisions has sped up. So be it.
It has b…
Senator Lunn will laugh this off
Prime Minister Harper deserves to be congratulated for his stunning victory. What he won tonight was more than a mere parliamentary majority; he accomplished his long-term ambition to ridicule the Liberal Party of Canada. In the face of great chall…

The most effective content always seems to come from third parties. Cartoonists, musicians, and artists tend to be better at connecting with large audiences than politicos – but that hardly needs saying.
“Rise Up,” is a perfect example of an artist c…

First Chris Alexander (Conservative Party Candidate for Ajax Pickering)proclaimed that there was no poverty in Canada. Now he says that his party’s priorities are “businesses first, families and pensioners second.” For his next gaffe, perhaps he’ll rid…
Continue readingCons wait six days to respond to LPC health care ad
Either their quick response machine is broken, and the CPC war room is a myth, or they really, really don’t want to talk about health care during this election. Why not? Perhaps it’s because of Stephen Harper’s record on health care:
In the Eng…
Continue reading"shhh… don’t tell anyone, but I’m not voting NDP this time around"
That’s the message on the ground here in Ottawa-Centre. Residents seem to be understanding that if they want to be rid of Stephen Harper, they have to elect a Liberal government. It is just so rewarding to hear your message returned to you at the door….

Chris Alexander, ladies and gentlemen:If I’m Mark Holland, I’m feeling very safe right now.
