Doubtful Kennedy or LeBlanc get in. IMO McGuinty's the only one who can give Trudeau any sort of fight because of his experience, fundraising capability and Rolodex.

4 candidates: Trudeau, Garneau, Hall Findlay, McGuinty. That should be enough.

Trudeau's strategy.

Hard debt caps. Paging MHF.

More likely Coderre runs for mayor. Tremblay's out next year unless he says otherwise. Good riddance.

MHF is certainly gearing up.

http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2012/08/30/dan-arnold-liberals-dawdle-towards-search-for-new-leader/

Per Don Martin on Twitter, Trudeau won't be announcing during the caucus retreat next week. Probably for Quebec election reasons- my guess is late Sept/early Oct like Mulcair last year.

IMO: Mulcair's timeline or thereabouts and the answer is yes.

Debt cap of $75,000, spending limit of $750,000. Tomorrow we should get the election mechanism.

$950k spending cap and $75k entrance fee. Election will be held April 14, 2013.

http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/politics/article/1252147--federal-liberals-to-elect-new-leader-in-april-2014

Update from Rae/Crawley presser: previous debt won't officially count, but the tone was of strong discouragement for indebted candidates (i.e. MHF). Details of debates, venue etc. will be unveiled in coming weeks/days.

All-Quebec battle between Trudeau, Garneau, Cauchon. No idea how they consider Cauchon to have playah status, but that's just me.

Trudeau: I like the rules but won't be announcing quite yet. IOW, publicly confirming what he leaked to Ivison a week ago.

Pretty clear who Chretien's voting for.

Sgro: David McGuinty interested, Dalton not so much. This contradicts just about everyone else we've heard opine on David, so would like another source. Garneau wants to run but so far doesn't have the resources, human or otherwise.

MHF is getting in on Wednesday, per Twitter.

Murray's in next week, Garneau "shortly."

What interests me is how none of these ABJ people have any factional ties, therefore neither infrastructure nor $$$ will be forthcoming. Whereas last time the Chretienites splintered between Rae and Dion with JC himself backing Rae and the Martinets backing Iggy.

Garneau: He's also not that great a politician. (Nearly losing WVM, among other things) The one putting up more of a policy fight will be MHF.

Garneau's getting in tomorrow. Also, everyone's getting Brisonomical. Hopefully he gets tapped as Trudeau's deputy.

Don't forget the Ville-Marie part stretches downtown with lots of students and younger voters. There wasn't any rise in Tory support like suburban Ontario, just a straight swing from Red to Orange.

A lot more Ville-Marie than Westmount.

Apparently Murray will be the token left-Liberal in the race. Go figure.
