I'm so proud to see our first foreign affairs minister of East Indian origins. Congratulations Anita Anand.

It will be fascinating to see Carney and Poilievre running in ridings next door to each other, while running against each other for the country... Clash of titans?

Liberals take note: If the Leadership vote is March 23, you may sign up as a supporter until February 10. (41 days before the Vote)

My post on why the prorogation Trudeau received today was appropriate, and why IF there is a legal challenge, the courts need to say the hell out of it.

#Liberals take note. #LPCConstitution section 44 says how a Leadership process can be "triggered" & how within 27 days of the "Trigger Event" the National Board must set a date for a Leadership Vote. Only registered Liberals registered 41 days before the date set for the Vote, may vote. .../2
