Four's Company?

Earlier, your humble organ reported Canadian Blood Services community development coordinator Gary Dhillon's name was being promoted as a possible federal Conservative nomination candidate in Newton-North Delta. And, in an interview today with Public Eye, Mr. Dhillon said he was "definitely considering the possibility of seeking a federal nomination in Newton-North Delta. And I will be revealing my plans in early September." Meanwhile, we've heard some Tories are talking up Sandeep Pandher's name as another contender for that nomination. Mr. Pandher, who works as a policy advisor in federal Transportation, Infrastructure and Communities Minister Lawrence Cannon's office, hasn't yet responded to a request for comment placed via through his minister's office.

It looks like the Conservatives are trying to become the new Liberals, minus support for same-sex marriage, of course.

Yeah. Liberals with no same-sex marriage, no multiculturalism, no environment plan, no child care, no multilateralism, no aboriginals, no safe injection sites, and a caucus that is 90% white men.

Judging by who is contesting the nominations for Newton-North Delta, Surrey North and Fleetwood Port Kells, the Conservatives are embracing multiculturalism and aiming for a caucus that is less than 90% white men. The Liberals, for their part are trying to resurrect John Turner.
