I attended the Green Party Convention - virtually. All very interesting seeing a new party form.

The headlines are interesting...
Lack of full slate of candidates is standard practice when election called, expert says
Conservatives 237 or 77 %
NDP 214 or 69%
Green 9 or 68%
Not all ridings have a full slate, if the riding isn't deemed winnable, or viable.
I can't believe what some of these people say. They wail about the 'Tsilver Tsunami', don't listen to us, and put both feet in their mouths. There is some value in life experiences.

An odd way to woo retirees. The Conservatives have run afoul of Canada’s national seniors organization after a rising star of the Tory caucus described Winnipeg Liberal MP Anita Neville, 68, as having “passed her expiry date"....
How to win friends and influence people! What about the Senate? Average age 64.74, and the elders being age 74!

I read that your government had broken down or something. In the US we don’t hear much about Canada politics as they are too busy talking about the problems here. It was interesting for me to read that in Norway the government is made of 50% male and 50% female – don’t know why they don’t do that in North America as there are more female voters than males anyhow.
