I don't usually post UPAC stuff because I don't follow it that much, but Normandeau's office was allegedly at the centre of a criminal conspiracy.

Do you still think Horwath pulls the trigger?

Thanks to Smid for reminding me about this article: only 3 '93 Reformers, including Harper, will be around after next year.

Completely agree with Granatstein.

Report that Horwath will pull the trigger. FWIW Bisson says "grossly inaccurate speculation."

Herb Gray has died at 82. RIP.

RIP Herb Gray. He was chancellor of my university when I graduated, so his signature appears on my degree.

How so? We've been tied with them in most non-Forum polls.

"Tied" being a bit of a stretch: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_in_the_42nd_Canadian_federal_election

Tories haven't led any polls since the Fall. Last time they were within the margin of error was February (5 point gap). Last time the Tories consistently led in polling was last Spring.

Good riddance to the worst specimen of human scum.

No, if he were human scum, we would've given him the Order of Canada.

Now we just need to get rid of the Member for Vancouver East.

What's wrong with Libby Davies? I would've thought the most hated NDPer would be Pat Martin.

I say we should get Harcourt to run against her.

I hope the new program will be much more strict.
I have enough of employers searching very exactly what they want, and if they don't find it, go hire a foreign person.
Before, they hired someone not exactly fitting what they wanted and they trained it. No wonder young unemployment is so high.

So what's up with that Angus Reid poll? Rogue poll or is there a shift afoot?

otherwise normal poll save for a huge swing to the Tories in Ontario.  methinks a 20th poll

Trudeau's negatives have also skyrocketed, now at 45/44 approval. Elections aren't won with prayers and all that.
