The Tories may pick up some Quebec City seats they lost in 2011, and might win a couple unexpected seats due to a lot of 4-way vote splits in rural Quebec.

I absolutely agree, but I also think that would happen if they got 15% in Quebec given the NDP's decline there.

Kady O'Malley sketches a possible shuffle: Kenney to Foreign Affairs, Raitt Jobs, Poilievre Transport.

Fife says Clement or Raitt could also replace Baird.

Fast is interim.

I'm not a Conservative Party supporter, but I thought Baird did a bang up job as Foreign Affairs Minister. He went from being an attack dog to a statesman in record time.

The poll says the NDP are at 25% in Quebec.  I can't find where it mentions the Conservatives in Quebec.

The poll says the Tories are at 26% in Quebec, not 25.

The results by regions for the Forum poll are on page 7 of the document. For the province of Quebec the sample is 321.

Libe: 27% Cons: 26% NDP:25% Bloc 18% Green:3%

There is also national data by language with ties.
French: 26% for the three main federal parties
English: 37% LIb and Con with NDP at 18%

Poilievre almost certainly replaces Baird as regional minister.

Ick. By far Baird was/is the best Conservative MP in the region. I understand Poilievre is the next highest ranked Tory in the area, but he also makes my skin crawl. Only worse MP in the region is Gallant, but I'd imagine Hash might have something to say about Galipeau.

The new Abacus poll has Quebec numbers that are much more consistent with other polls:
NDP: 35%
Liberals: 27%
Bloc (heads): 16%
Conservatives: 14%

RCMP takes over Hill security.

BOIE still messy as ever.


Coolest leadership poll ever. Harper wins the serious things like career advice, Trudeau wins the fluff like vacation companion and babysitting. He already does dinner dates as a fundraising gig, of course.

One year from today, euthanasia will be legal in specific circumstances. Government has a year to modify the law.

I'm still not 100% convinced  of this; it's possible, but the media's been speculating about this for months

Trudeau: national carbon standards but provinces develop their own policies. Doesn't sound binding yet.

Apparently it's just the first night of these, but it's bad news.

Here's a list: http://todaysndp.ca/Convention2015/DelegateSelectionMeetings

I'm going to see if I can keep track of these for mapping purposes.

So far:
Ashton wins Emerson and Assiniboia
Oswald wins Kirkfield Park

The 'gang of 5' supporters can't stand Selinger.

Steve Ashton will easily win on the second ballot.

Eve Adams just crossed the floor. She's holding a presser with Trudeau at NPC right now. Good riddance.
