Monday Leadership News


Let’s start off with the race on everyone’s mind – the Green Party! Centrerion has scored interviews with David Chernushenko (slogan: easier name to spell than Bevilacqua) and Elizabeth May. And he’s open to suggestions on what questions you’d like to see the two contenders asked. So if you have any burning Green Party of Canada issues you’d like to see raised, head on over to the site and suggest them. Personally, I’d like to ask the candidates if they’re open to changing the colour of their signs to orange so that passers by can see them better.

On the same vein, I had a chance to interview Carolyn Bennett last week and will post that in the coming days. It also sounds like I will get the opportunity to sit down with another candidate later this month so if anyone has any questions they’d like to see me ask them, be they serious or not, I’m open to suggestions.

In Liberal leadership news, Gerard Kennedy had a big event in BC over the weekend, announcing Raymond Chan as his BC co-chair.

The Globe is also buzzing about endorsements this week, highlighting the teams which have lined up behind Kennedy and Ignatieff.

I don’t think it breaks any rules so I didn’t mention the Volpe business over the weekend. Still, it’s good to see that Joe Volpe inspires youth to such a large degree that they are willing to donate over 5 grand to his campaign – each.

And, finally, this isn’t leadership related, but someone needs to remind Ricky Williams that Harper has killed the pot decrim laws…

UPDATE: I’ve added a “Related” link to the permalink section which will take you to similar topics of posts on Canconv. If you find this really annoying or think this is a brilliant addition to the site, let me know via e-mail or in the comments section.
