CFN – It is hard to believe that it is 30 years ago today that I was a young campaign manager sitting in our riding election office trying to find ways to keep our candidate busy (and out of our hair) on what was then an election day- September 4th, 1984. We were in a […]
CFN – The latest Abacus poll was interesting as its numbers show how few people think anything would change under a Liberal or NDP government. For instance under a Liberal government, 46% don’t think there would be any difference when it comes to job creation. For the environment 51% don’t think things would be any […]

CFN – In this day and age can a politician keep their sexuality private? Should gay candidates disclose if they are gay in 2014? Of course people are entitled to their privacy, but being a public servant is a role of trust. In particular here in Canada is the Conservative Party which many have […]
