Everybody Loves Raymond

Richmond MP and former minister of state for multiculturalism Raymond Chan will be hosting a mass reception for at least four federal Liberal leadership candidates this Sunday. The reception, which is being held at the Floata Seafood Restaurant, will feature Carolyn Bennett, Ken Dryden, Hedy Fry and Michael Ignatieff. Maurizio Bevilacqua is also scheduled to make a campaign swing through Vancouver over the weekend - but it is unclear whether he will be attending event, which is intended to give members of the Chinese community an opportunity scratch and sniff the hopefuls. Gerard Kennedy and Bob Rae already participated in seperate but similar grip and grin sessions at the Shiang Garden Seafood Restaurant. The following is a copy of the invite to the upcoming reception.

As far as I know, Chan is supporting Rae.

I suppose Gerard is moving to Quebec that weekend?

Hey there Who? Who are you to say Chan is backing Rae? This guy has been in politics since you were sucking on your mommy's teet! Chan and the former NDP... please. Chan will wait and strategize, as he has done so many times before. With the numbers he can pull out for the final leadership vote, he will surely wait to see how this thing plays out. Unlike rookies like yourself, Chan knows how to hold em'.
