I'm still staring at the CBC's Canada Votes 2011 web page, particularly that beautiful map. It's slowly sinking in how far the Liberal Party has fallen. How it literally is…
I agree Bob Rae as interim Liberal leader in Ottawa would be a very bad idea if he plans to run for permanent leader. Jean Chretien needs to stop playing…
I've got to admire the positive spin by some Liberal supporters out there after last night's devastating and historic defeat. The people of Canada made decisive choices yesterday. They voted…
****UPDATED 12:15 AM MAY 2ND"Polls don’t elect MPs," said Michael Ignatieff today. "Votes elect MPs. Let’s wait for the Canadian people to do what they want to do."The pseudo-science of…
I don't think this latest argument from Prime Minister Stephen Harper is going to resonate with the intended audience. As all Liberals know, Harper has led a vicious smear campaign…
Remember when it came out last summer that Rob Ford had been arrested in Florida for drug possession and drunk driving in 1999 (see mug shot to the right)? The…
Nanos's daily polls this campaign have been always interesting and entertaining, but they seem to have caught on to the NDP wave in Quebec a bit late. Their regional swings…

This past week's flirtation with the NDP in Quebec and perhaps elsewhere reminds me of Ontario's flirtation with the NDP in 1990. Quebecers have never experienced life under NDP rule.…
I'm as shocked as anyone at the sudden, apparent surge of the New Democrats in Quebec. It makes sense the NDP would eventually win appeal with Quebecers. Jack Layton is…
The federal campaign is now at its half-way point. Let me share some thoughts. The Daily Nanos rolling overnight polls show little change in the last two days and everyone…
This was another great moment last night when we finally got to see Stephen Harper get a little truth about leadership from Michael Ignatieff. Play it often.
While watching the post-debate spin tonight on CBC and CTV, I asked myself: 'Were we watching the same debate?' Ignore the spin doctors. Watch for yourself one of Ignatieff's many…
Watching tonight's debate left me invigorated with Michael Ignatieff's performance and leadership. I applauded with joy his many zingers and take-downs of Stephen Harper and his record. He made the…
Kudos to where they are due: Joe Warmington in Sun Media today. “We found that money expended for the G8 infrastructure projects under the Border Infrastructure Fund were approved by…
