Hi Cathie.......Wow. That's quite an election round-up. After I finished reading it I was shaking my head, and wanting to lie down. It's shaping up as the craziest election ever and it's only days two !!! I'm hoping it will be the election that finally put the spotlight on climate change, and give Justin Trudeau a majority to do what needs to be done to turn our petrostate into something greener. But so far climate change has hardly been mentioned, our crappy media just doesn't seem interested. This morning Trudeau was in Vancouver to make an announcement about climate change and forest fires, and the media didn't ask him one question about that. They were only interested in the criminal case against General Fortin, and Afghanistan, even though you could see the smoke in the background. Oh well, we still have 33 days to go....

Yes, I am hoping Trudeau can get better traction with his issues though he is going to need a more nimble media response room, I think, to reply quickly to O'Toole's bafflegab promises - which Canadian media will allow to set their agenda, I'm afraid.
