Even More Mid-Week Musings


1. It’s a very complex blog.

2. BBG calls it “whack a Liberal day“. First we get news that the Tories plan to sue the Liberals. I may be the only person in the Liberal Party who isn’t a lawyer so I don’t want to comment but I have a very hard time seeing how this lawsuit could possibly be successful. I guess if it keeps Adscam in the news, it certainly is a smart political move for the CPC (although one wonders about the timing, given this).

There’s also a leaked copy of the AG’s report on the gun registry floating around which has Sheila Fraser mad as hell. And, from my memory, Sheila Fraser is right up there with Bruce Banner, as people you wouldn’t like when they’re angry.

As for the report itself, it’s certainly going to make the Liberals look bad. No denying that. But, at the same time, it’s going to say that the program costs are now under control which should make it harder for Harper to kill the registry. Good.

3. I wouldn’t put a lot of stock in polls right now, but after his incredible election night predictions, Nick Nanos has earned a few free links. The poll numbers pretty much show everyone right where’d you’d expect them to be.

4. Although it physically pains me to praise Joe Volpe and knock Monte Solberg, I was disappointed to see Monte talk about lowering Canada’s immigration targets. There’s a good article in the Globe today about declining birth rates and Canada’s shifting demographics. With an aging population, dramatically increasing Canada’s immigration totals should be a top priority for any government thinking about the long run.
