@acoyne Who was it that so firmly asserted jail not bail?

[Hugh Wright @HughHWright]

@fvandenburg @stphnmaher Having been in the courtroom in 1999 when Shelburne NS was tied, a “draw from the hat” is inevitably arbitrary. A by election is a better outcome for our democracy.

[Hugh Wright @HughHWright]

@stphnmaher In Terrebonne, that vote at issue likely can’t count, as it is not now anonymous and can’t be cast at this time. But there is a contested election provision - if an irregularity occurs that brings the results into question, then a by election can be ordered.

Hmm - perhaps platform release is approaching?

[Tyler Meredith @tylermeredith]

Because he realized it’s $14-15 billion a year.

And he never specified a phase-in in the original announcement.

He advertises that families would get thousands of dollars right away.

But we did the math for him.

It is very rare to see a party leaders negatives GO DOWN as a campaign goes on. Especially the INCUMBENT. #cdnpoli

So Danielle Smith is threatening separation if Mark Carney, who 39% of Albertans want as PM, defeats Pierre Poilievre, who 40% of Albertans want as PM...

Now is the time to stand up for Canada. 🇨🇦 See my message to the constituents of Kings-Hants.

Across our province, more and more families are struggling to put food on the table. That’s not right. The @LiberalPartyNS will lower grocery prices. We’ll do that by removing taxes on ALL food from grocery stores AND increasing competition.

Tim Houston sees an anti incumbency wave sweeping across the country, and decides to run into it.

[Dan Arnold @calgarygrit]

Tim Houston breaks the first law he passed as Premier on fixed election dates.

The larger electoral risk for him is if voters perceive him to have broken his promise to fix healthcare.

[Tim Houston - Premier of Nova Scotia parody @DimHouston]

It’s official: we just disobeyed the law we created for fixed election dates!

That just about covers it. We broke nearly every single election promise and expect people to line up for more of this.

[Hugh Wright @HughHWright]

Hmm - Canada was first….and still is first!! Doesn’t seem to fit the Canada is broken narrative

@RobCurrieMusic I think there is a relatively short limitation period in the US for criminal offences? Which makes no sense to me.

[Hugh Wright @HughHWright]

@katierogers Seems to be going from strength to strength!
