812...Elizabeth May Deathwatch

In the Toronto Star this morning Joanna Smith writes that environmentalist Briony Penn says that Elizabeth May is going to crash and burn in her chosen riding of Saanich-Gulf Islands in B.C.

Ms. Penn knows Saanich-Gulf Islands, the former Green Party card holder ran for the Liberal Party in the last election and was defeated by Tory minister the Honourable Gary Lunn. She says that as much as she would like to see the Green Party leader, Ms. May, in the House of Commons, "...it would take an extraordinary miracle for Elizabeth to win."

What the former Liberal candidate fears most is what is going to happen; Ms. May will split the non Conservative vote giving Mr. Lunn a clear path to reelection.

  1. Well than, the libs need to stand down (like they did in Nova Scotia) and give May a free ride.
    Or is running as a liberal the only alternative you had in mind?
