Canadian federal election - 2015

I feel that Beaulieu will do pretty well in La Pointe-de-l'Ile. That area of Montreal is very french-speaking and working class. However, there is a large presence of immigrants from the Maghreb region. Although many of these voters could vote for BQ, I think he has to avoid being racist/xenophobic. He can certainly be anti-Anglo and win the riding though.

However, there is a large presence of immigrants from the Maghreb region.

The riding is one of the (if not the) whitest Francophone parts of Montreal Island.

Maybe it's just the south of the riding that I have been in and seen the immigrant presence. My grandparents live on the border with Hochelaga riding. Is there any riding demographic data newer than 2011?

So, I kinda follow Canadian politics but not terribly in depth, but I realized that there's a LOT of party switching. I take it this is due to more inter-party ideological similarity and more fluidity than the US, correct?

[VPH]

Man, I'll be glad if the NDP wins. I'm probably moving to Montreal in 1.5 years, so I'll appreciate having an NDP government.

[VPH]

Wow, I'd love if the NDP was the government and the Liberals were the official opposition.
