Dench comes before Mirren in the line of succession.

There's no way they're rolling back the areas they've already switched over to cmbs, but hopefully a few posties will get to keep their jobs under Trudeau the Younger.

those buildings are the absolute worst. seriosuly think about walking through a 14 story building and putting letters in 300 mail slots at below waist level

On a rainy day they're kinda awesome for the respite alone... but the time values (re: how long it should take to deliver) are rated almost the same as a mail room or panel set.

The Liberals have never really tried in this riding, usually going with no name candidates that barely campaign. It'd be interesting to see what the results of this riding would have been had the Liberals put forward a star candidate. I wonder if they will next time.

Eventhough he was just a name for the ballot, Ed Wong did actually get out there and campaign. He'd be out on Commerical a couple of times a week, shaking hands and talking to folks. Not sure how much money was put behind him, but he made an effort and I think that counted a great deal.

I think it's a competitive seat, or can be when the incumbent retires anyway. Kwan does hit the identity politics trifecta though, so she's gonna be pretty hard to dislodge after this.

Hybrid offense, either indictable or summary. I think the Crown's strategy was to have the verdict on his record prior to the malfeasance/public trust charges he's due in court for on a later date. But I wasn't in the room, so that's just conjecture.

I don't understand why visiting the GG on November 4th and resigning is worse than visiting on October 28th and telling the GG you intend to resign on November 4th.

The Westminster system functions almost entirely on tradition and not much of a fixed ruleset. They're supposed to do this poo poo because it's polite and respectful of government as a whole.

There is nothing wrong with being a oval office, I excel at it. I just don't think such behaviour is worthy of the office, that's all.

What's so wrong about asking for clear information released publically?

Just one last wipe of his rear end on the rugs of Parliament before he leaves, no biggie.

Every city and small town is famous for that, it's a mountie tradition. If the local police are something other than mounties, they're just keeping up standards.
