Tootoo won't be readmitted to caucus despite finishing rehab. Wonder what else there is to this story.

Government wants a FDI-fuelled IT boom, a modern successor to Howe's postwar boom.

Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will be visiting this fall.

Tootoo was expelled from caucus due to allegations of an inappropriate relationship with a junior staffer.

New Supreme Court nomination process: a 7-member advisory panel chaired by Kim Campbell will make recommendations, and Trudeau will choose from that list.

Q2 fundraising # in: $5.1M/$4.9M/$1.1M.

Depends if Justin can consolidate the left while keeping the centre. What Hagrid is describing is Grit Inc., when there was no opposition to speak of inside or outside Parliament till 1945, and a mostly useless one thereafter. (Put another way, do you think he's a political genius like King?) He'll definitely win in 2019, beyond that depends on the economy and remaining scandal-free.

Canola dispute threatens to cloud Trudeau's G20 Beijing visit. As for May, she's been Grit-friendly throughout her leadership, especially when Dion was Grit leader. Highly unlikely but not totally impossible.

Immigration levels will be substantially increased from this year's 285-305k target.

RIP Mauril Belanger. Sad

Delacourt floats the idea that May joins the Grits. Been waiting for this since 2008.

Meanwhile in Ontario, Tories holding steady at 41/28/23. Really need a Scarborough poll though.

Bardish Chagger is now House Leader. Weird to give a rookie that post, but we know NOTHING MATTERS.

Amusing FCO 80s dispatches on leading political personalities. Agree with most of them.

No, that's just a strategic move to keep the NDP down. Grits have been doing this with social democratic third parties for nearly a century, it ain't new. Most recently, Paul Martin campaigned with then CAW-chief Buzz Hargrove in 2004/6.

Wells thinks the electoral reform process will collapse and government backs off.

Léger federal poll: 53-25-12 nationally, 51-17-16-12 here. Provincial ballot is 34-29-23.

Feds could join Alberta in phasing out coal.

Whoa: potential caucus coup against Mulcair soon. Possible interim replacements are Julian, Rankin or Cullen.
