Del Villano watches a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor

A senior Conservative campaigner tells us the Tory strategy sessions in Esquimalt-Juan de Fuca have, in some cases, resulted in yelling matches between candidate John Koury, incumbent MP Keith Martin's volcanic former executive assistant, and his affable fedora-wearing manager Gary Del Villano, a retired armoured corp. major. The problem: Mr. Koury's need to micromanage almost every aspect of the campaign - except, it seems, ordering signs. That order was made too late to get them printed before Prime Minister Paul Martin dropped the writ. As a result, Mr. Martin and New Democrat candidate Randall Garrison are the only ones who currently have outdoor advertising in the riding.
