Earlier, we reported Paul Lalli had submitted his nomination papers to run for the federal Conservative nomination in Fleetwood-Port Kells - a riding presently held by Nina Grewal. But rumours abound that Mr. Lalli's candidacy was rejected today. In an interview minutes ago, the former Squamish councillor advised us to phone back about the issue in half an hour. A nomination meeting for that riding is scheduled for September 10.

The Tories would not dare squash Lalli's candidacy - it would stink to high heaven of a backroom deal with the Grewals if they did, and Harper could not afford that kind of thing. Further, the Tories have promised an open nomination process.
