    85.9% – that rounds to 86% not 85%

    I’m so glad I donated and voted. I’ve voted liberal since Trudeau’s first run, and prior to that I voted NDP (my local NPD candidate was awesome, and I knew him through charity work – I would have voted any party to support that guy).

    I’m thrilled with this news.

    I don’t dislike Freeland, but she would have been a disaster. I liked her in the debate, but I hated her campaign (in an alternative universe where Trudeau never ran, she’d have been great). She can’t brush off the last 9 years of her life – she was helping steer the LPC bus, there’s no getting around that. I’m glad she drove it into a fence and forced this vote though.

    Gould seemed good but I don’t think she would ever convert any Conservative voters, or even be a clear choice above NDP.

    I actually loved Baylis, I thought he killed the debate doing by far the best. I would support him.

        Yes.

        I mentioned in another comment I don’t think she would be Trump’s foil, I think she would be his punching bag. She can take a punch, she seems damn tough, but I don’t think that’s what the country needs right now.
