Are you THE Terri?

Said with love. I love his journalism, does great interviews, contextualize things well. If he thinks Terry's knows what's going on, the country should know about it.

The Liberals of 2015 ran on a campaign to "make every vote count" as the Greens and NDP have done forever...

Collectively they consistently represent a majority of Canadians in Parliament.

All votes get counted.

But, not all votes count.

Reporters will often declare, wrongly, "this just goes to show 'every vote counts'".

Which is absurd....

Thousands of people voted for other candidates, and have no representation in Parliament.

One of the ways this gets misunderstood is in close electoral races, say a race with a difference of 12 votes, like Chateguey-Les Jardine-Napierville in the last federal election.

Gets counted = is recorded in the electoral results.

Counts = impacts the results of the election.

They have been incredibly well organized recently, far more that the Liberals and NDP as far as I can tell.

Just because Houston didn't endorse Pollievre doesn't mean that his supporters did the same.
