  • Higher Spending

    Although most of it got lost in the press during what was one of Paul Martin’s worst weeks as Prime Minister, the Liberal post-secondary announcement on Thursday is a step in the right direction. Paying half the first and final year of tuition will help encourage University accessibility, and the more University educated students Canada […]

  • The ONLY Question Remaining:

    Are you afraid of having Stephen Harper as your Prime Minister? Nothing else matters anymore. I don’t want to call the election because a lot can change in two weeks but it’s safe to say the Liberal government has defeated itself. Nothing they do over the last two weeks will change that. It’s been a […]

  • Vote Out Anders…part 80

    I got a good laugh out of this.

  • Book Club

    Lost in the shuffle over the latest RCMP investigation was this: Still, Mr. Dauphin has hired a spokesman in advance of the publication of Mr. Lester’s book, The Secrets of Option Canada, which is due to be released next week. Ouch. What this means is that in the second to last week of the campaign, […]

  • 2005: Year in Review

I’ve always felt year in reviews were a nice excuse to write something during a very slow news period but, even though the election campaign is coming down the stretch, it’s probably worth looking back at the year that was. Best Picture of 2005: Was it […]

  • Nutty Stuff

    Progressive Bloggers are taking nominations for the political nut of the year.

  • Boomerang

    SES has the Tories up 36-33 (although, given the rolling nature of the poll, they’ll drop a very good day for the Tories tomorrow so I suspect we’ll see the two parties within a point of a each other), while Gregg has the two parties in a dead heat: 32-32. Paul Wells mentioned how the […]

  • Policy Wonks

    While I’ve been fairly critical of the Liberal campaign (much to the chagrin of my Liberal readers), I’ve been fairly critical of Conservative policy (much to the chagrin of my Tory readers). However, the one piece of policy the Conservatives are proposing that I really like is the Federal Accountability Act. Harper elaborated on the […]

By JANE TABERJanuary 3, 2006Globe and Mail The body isn’t even warm yet, and already there are at least two senior Liberals — Frank McKenna and John Manley — who insiders say are quietly gearing up their leadership campaigns.
