-There’s an interesting post on Policy Watch about the Conservatives breaking copyright laws on the government of Canada website. Well…”interesting” if you find discussion on copyright infringement laws interesting.
-Is there anyone who knows of any articles on how demographics (ie. Census data) are related to voting patterns in Canada? Send me an e-mail if you know of any out there. Thanks.
–Political Staples links up to the Tom Flanagan article in Saturday’s Globe on rebuilding the Mulroney coalition. Is it just me or does anyone else think the break-up and coming together of Canada’s right wing would make for a fascinating book? Maybe even a CBC mini-series (let’s hear everyone’s suggestions for actors to play Stockwell Day, Stephen Harper, and Joe Clark right now!).
-I was happy when I reached number 2 for google “David Herle” searches. But nothing can match the pride and certain traffic which will come from reaching number 1 in this search.
-An 11 candidate debate? Good grief. I think we’d probably learn more watching the 11 duel it out in a game of Hungry Hungry Hippos. The one bright spot in the debates should be the random one-on-one matchups. Some people say they’ll lead to odd pairings but I for one think it would be kind of fun to watch Stephane Dion match wits with Hedy Fry.
-The Nova Scotian election is on, featuring Darrell Dexter against Rodney MacDonald .
I wish I had some insightful comments to make about this race but I just can’t get past the names: Rodney MacDonald versus Darrell Dexter.
-Garth Turner is holding an on-line town hall on June 1st. Cool.
