The Numbers: Trudeau's next by-election test
Another must-win for the Liberals in LaSalle–Émard–Verdun? One would think so.
A by-election call looms in LaSalle–Émard–Verdun in a contest that could prove a stiff test for the Liberals, as the NDP and Bloc target what has been a safe Liberal seat in Montreal.
Plus, another call could come in the Winnipeg riding of Elmwood–Transcona, where the Conservatives will put the NDP on the defensive. (Note: the Liberals announced their candidate for Elmwood–Transcona shortly after we recorded.)
We also chat about the announcements from Seamus O'Regan and Francis Drouin that they won't be running for re-election.
We then answer listener questions from the mailbag — and provide a Margin of Error 101 refresher course.
Finally, Philippe tests Éric with a Quiz.
