It’s Joe vs Alice in Richmond

Share (Sorry for not updating. Am going to HK for a month… so much to finish before I take my annual holiday.) Anyway, this’s just in: Mason Loh loses his nomination bid in Richmond (see previous story). Joe Peschisolido gets it. Raymond Chan loses out in first round… rumour is that his ballots are then [...]

Liberal parties federal and provincial

Share I have a thought today that if Ignatieff’s Liberals want to gain grounds in BC and Ontario, they have to make a clear case that they are NOT the same brand as Gordon Campbell’s BC Liberals and McGuinty’s Liberals. This is especially important among newer immigrants. In BC, it’s very common among new Chinese [...]

EI reform joke

Share Disgusted. Same old tactic over and over again. I’m soooo tired. Bring some creativity to Ottawa guys! EI reform itself doesn’t warrant an election.

Share I hope to see new face(s) in the race. I’m for Mason Loh. Is he ready? Between Raymond Chan and Joe Peschisolido, who’d have a better chance to unseat Alice Wong? What is your opinion? Raymond and Joe ready for Round 3? Richmond Review – Two high-profile Liberals appear to be getting set for [...]

Poll says negative ads biting back Tories

Share I think the problem with the Tory negative ads this round is that the negative message is NOT convincing. When I watch the ad saying “he’ll go back to Harvard” I can’t help LOL. Do you have anything to support that claim? It’s not just pure guess, it also shows how much envy the [...]

Poll shows Canadians warming up to Iggy’s Liberals

Share I expected that it would be coming but didn’t think it would be that quick and in such large increments. A new CP poll says Iggnatieff is now a more favourable choice for PM for Quebecors. From the Globe and Mail: The Liberals have moved into a statistical tie with the governing Tories, according [...]
