This town is sick
In the news today, a taxpayer-funded CBC panelist, HuffPo journalist, and Trudeau biographer,
with notes from a taxpayer-funded partisan Liberal research bureau,
writes a story about taxpayer-funded Conservative partisans,
on direction from the taxpayer-funded Prime Minister’s Office,
protesting this previously alluded-to taxpayer-funded politician,
on his transparency pledge that omits his private business which raised money from taxpayer-funded charities.
The protest was done in order to change the channel on this taxpayer-funded politician’s taxpayer-funded housing allowance,
though another taxpayer-cheating Senator,
may be welcome back in a tax-exempt political party that issues 75% tax deductions on amounts donated,
to direct taxpayer-funded partisans to protest, like they did against this taxpayer-funded politician,
who once cheekily posed with taxpayer-funded partisans,
protesting a tax on everything.
Bob Rae resigns, who will replace him in Toronto Centre?
Yesterday, Bob Rae resigned from the House of Commons, giving up his Toronto Centre seat. The seat has been a safe Liberal seat for quite some time and the Liberal nomination race to replace him will be a competitive one.
Here are some of the Liberal names that I’m hearing that may be running for the Liberal nomination:
– George Smitherman, former mayoral candidate and former Ontario cabinet minister
– Seamus O’Reagan, of CTV’s Canada AM (via the Globe and Mail), close friend of Justin Trudeau
– John Duffy, former Liberal strategist, current lobbyist
The NDP could give the Liberals a good run. They’ll likely put forward a viable candidate. Potential names include:
– Jennifer Hollett (via Xtra), former Much Music VJ and CBC journalist, presented at the NDP convention
– Cathy Crowe, former candidate in 2010 by-election
– Kristyn Wong-Tam, city councillor
Potential Conservative nomination contestants:
– Andrew Keyes, former candidate
– Kevin Moore, former candidate
