The Vancouver harbour, whose future was almost certainly decided by the 2013 BC Election, on E-Day (May 14, 2013).

Christy the Campaigner&#39;s 20-point comeback, against the most technically proficient campaign the BC NDP has ever run, contains a number of lessons for federal political watchers to consider carefully.

The Prime Minister has decided to take his licks early in the Big Land, and bury the news of his likely by-election loss to the Liberals in Labrador the day before BC will almost certainly elect a new NDP Premier.

There has been some fantastic reporting on the case of the financing and election expenses of the Peter Penashue Conservative campaign in Labrador, but an awful lot of misinformation elsewhere in the media as well about the details of the case.
So here&#39;s a briefing note, Pundits&#39; Guide-style, on the law, on how [...]]]></description>

The resignation of first-time Labrador Conservative M.P. and one-time President of the Innu Nation, Peter Penashue, means that a by-election will be held in this northern seat as soon as May 6, 2013.
Penashue (pen-AA-shoe-way) wants to be a candidate in that by-election, but said in a statement that he&#39;s resigning after learning [...]]]></description>

Earlier today, Liberal leadership candidate Marc Garneau dropped out of the race after failing to generate a debate on substance versus flash.
This is too bad, because he never really tried.
Garneau wanted a debate on substance with Justin Trudeau, but he never raised a substantive issue for the debate. The best he came [...]]]></description>

Sometimes I think the word &#34;gerrymander&#34; is the most over-used and under-understood word in politics. The fact is that Canada has one of the most enviable, non-partisan systems of establishing electoral boundaries in the world &#8212; one that was designed and agreed to by every political party of the day.
And during all [...]]]></description>

It is just not sporting to declare a political contest over before the voting starts, and that&#39;s not something we at Pundits&#39; Guide would ever do. But Justin Trudeau&#39;s leadership campaign raised fully 58.4% of the $1.15M in leadership donations reported by the Liberal Party in the fourth quarter of 2012.
