No surprise – the saga of Craig Chandler has come to an end…or has it? Knowing Mr. Chandler, I suspect this isn’t the last he’ll be heard of.

Just because I probably won’t have the opportunity to take shots at the nominated PC candidate in my home riding past Saturday, I thought I’d toss out a few gems from the best of Craig Chandler courtesy of today’s Globe & Mail: Earlier this year, a settlement arranged by the Canadian Human Rights Commission forced […]

Due to our non-aggression pact, I’m unable to criticize Elizabeth May for, yet again, comparing climate change to the Nazis. Instead, I’ll give her some friendly advice in a new blog segment entitled “How Not To Say Stupid Things In Politics”. Given her past comments, I suspect this might turn into quite the lengthy post […]

Well, this should be fun.

-Saskatchewan tosses out the NDP then takes a Grey Cup a few weeks later – no surprise given the NDP jinx. It was interesting to see Jim Flaherty and Peter MacKay there to present the Grey Cup. I can understand why the Minister of Defense was there when the player of the game had three […]

David Orchard has tossed his toque into what I imagine will be a hotly contested Liberal nomination for Gary Merasty’s old seat. Not a huge surprise considering he played a major role in delivering the Liberal leadership to Dion. While I could restate my view of Orchard, I’m not in the mood to read through […]

For those who missed it last night, The National’s report on how political parties use personal data should be mandatory watching for anyone in the Liberal Party’s head office. Despite some talk of renewal during the leadership race last year, it’s abundantly clear that the party is still eons behind the Tories structurally and it […]

Last spring, there was the non-aggression pact with the Greens. This weekend, the exodus of the Progressive Canadians to the Liberals. It’s clear now that the Liberal plan is to assimilate the fringe parties one by one (hell, David Orchard probably counts as a fringe party by himself), growing Liberal support 0.1% at a time. […]

When the saga of Craig Chandler broke this fall, I didn’t blog about it. As much fun as it would have been to skewer Craig (and after reading this post, you’ll fully appreciate just how much fun it is!), the fact was he was just some guy going for the Tory nomination and I didn’t […]

Craig Chandler comes through in Calgary Egmont! I’ll go into quite some detail on the saga of Craig Chandler tomorrow for those who haven’t been following it. To put it into perspective, this is akin to Randy Hillier losing a nomination battle…in which he is the more moderate candidate. This is going to be fun, […]
