She sounds to me like the person that should be leading the LPC, not Iggy.

From the sounds of it, she's too smart for that job, hopefully she acts on her obvious desire to work together with others at building a real alternative to the two corrupt old rightwing establishment parties.

I'm curious why the remarks were yanked so quickly from the Facebook page.

But then again, perhaps they weren't. Possibly they had been up there for quite some time, but someone only noticed it recently.

If her profile is the one that still exists, she was posting to a rather tight circle of a couple of dozen close friends. The intimacy rather changes the context, don't you think?

It adds to the sincerity of her words, and raises another question: did one of her tight circle betray her by copying and forwarding her post? Or did she give permission?

Yet another irked Liberal

One is reminded of the Paris intrigues that Voltaire and his Emilie had to brave... remarks by one or the other being revealed by friends.  It speaks to the "French fact" in Canada ("francophone culture as a distinct component of Canadian society" from the Canadian Oxford Dictionary.  At least, you have to love the openess of thought within the Dion family.   :D

Chantal Hébert just posted on her blog that the Greens are announcing a new Deputy Leader for Québec in Montréal tomorrow, and she hinted that it'll be Dion. That's disappointing...

 

False alarm. The new deputy is [url=http://www.ledevoir.com/politique/canada/277859/elizabeth-may-recrute-un... Rivard[/url] a former CBC reporter.

I missed that post yesterday. Why on earth would Hebert give such a rumour any credibility at all?

This was long overdue since the previous Deputy Leader had dissapeared from even being heard from by Greens.

I wouldn't completely rule out Dion moving to the Greens as an in you face departure. But if it were to happen, the fanfare would be HUGE. No Blair Wilson this time. It would not be presaged with a "oh by the way, we're announcing the new Deputy Leader tommorow.
