Because there are already far too many female MPs in Ontario...

...John Tory has decided to have a female MP resign her seat so he can run in her riding.  Don't they look happy about it?

So far Tory has been singularly unable to win an election. I was thinking, wouldn't it be great if the parties that came 3rd and 4th last time decided to sit it out and support whoever came in just to keep Tory's record of losses perfect?

Except that John Tory was the elected member for Wellington-Dufferin-Grey-Peel prior ot the 2007 provincial election, elected after the incumbent (David Tilson) stepped down to create a vacancy for him in the provincial legislature.

No, David Tilson stepped down on behalf of Ernie Eves--who, in his turn, stepped down on behalf of John Tory...
