Trudeau targets both as polls move to favour Conservatives

https://twitter.com/DavidRayAmos/with_replies





Replying to   @FloryGoncalves and 49 others
Methinks if Gerald Butts had two clues between his ears he would read my emails and get back to me before I debate the aptly named lawyer Rob Moore a Shadow Cabinet Minister for Harper 2.0 on Oct 17th N'esy Pas?

Are you folks aware that the articles published by the Kings County
Record when I ran in the election of the 38th Parliament are recorded
in the Library of Parliament, some court dockets and several blogs as
well?  If you have not read the ancient history published by the
Irving Clan you will find them at the bottom of this email.

This email is largely about YouTube videos because most folks hate to
take too much time out of their day to read much but they may listen
to their smart phones while doing something else if it is not too
boring.

However there are a few articles within the CBC that I am mentioning
the election in Fundy Royal right now. Some of you may wish to dispute
my words before the comment sections close.


I must say the news in CBC about CBC suing the Conservative Party was
kinda special but they offer no comment section at obviously for
political not legal  reasons.

However Mr Dressup putting on a bulletproof vest and having RCMP tough

stop his downhill slide from power has cause quite a stir.  Then when
he slammed the NDP and the Bloc who are actually saying they would
side with him to form a coalition government things went of the rail
in the Fake Left's wacko world. Strange days indeed when Trudeau The
Younger loses grip on his "Sunny Ways" EH?

Methinks nobody should be surprised to see that Rogers TV had clipped
the last half hour of their recording of a debate for the seat in
Fundy Royal held in Sussex NB on October 8th when they finally posted
within their channel YouTube. I have no doubt whatsoever the editing
was done so that folks who did not attend the debate would have no
idea what was said. Some folks woe were there that night have agreed
that the things that were said about issues pertaining to Veterans,
Climate Change and Pro Life was too much for the lawyer Rob Moore and
the liberal incumbent to deal with so they said nothing at all. Their
silence was a telling thing indeed N'esy Pas?

There have been many stories of false threats made for political
reasons over the last year.

David Raymond Amos
Reply to @Johnathon Locke: Methinks Mr Prime Minister Trudeau the
Younger and his many cohorts in all political parties are well are of
my false imprisonments in Canada and the USA over false allegations.
That was one of the many reasons I sued the Queen in 2015 while
running in Fundy Royal again N'esy Pas?

David Raymond Amos
Reply to @Paddie Ferraro: Methinks it obviously it includes a

the former Clerk of the PCO gave Mr Butts the not so bright idea N'esy
Pas?



 It is a small wonder that the BLOC and the NDP are gaining steam. In
a nutshell its blatantly obvious that many Canadians are sick and
tired of the usual political bullshit. More importantly many are
reacting like the Yankees did when they elected the wacko named Trump.
If there ever was a time for Fundy Royal to elect someone other than a
Conservative or a Liberal the time is NOW.

 I used to suggest that folks vote for the NDP but now I suggest that
they vote for me.

Just voted for my local conservative candidate yesterday at an

Reply to @Richard Ade: My wife and I did the same yesterday. I agree
we can do this if we all get out to vote. We can bring the country
back to sane, balanced, principled people with real experience and
take it away from actors and clowns.

David Raymond Amos
Reply to @Robert Paul: The Fat Lady ain't sung at the Circus yet and I
get to play my part at the circus with one of clowns working for
Harper 2.0. There will be a debate in Hampton on October 17th for the
seat in Fundy Royal. Folks can't deny that this is the 3rd I have run
against the lawyer Rob Moore. The last time was the Minister who
oversaw ACOA and then became the "Shadow Cabinet Minister" for the
Conservatives after the folks booted them all out their seats in the
last election

Methinks many would agree that the liberals did not win the last
election. The fact is that the majority of Canadians wanted to make
certain that the Conservatives and the NDP lost and while Trudeau
conned a lot of folks with his promises of electoral reform. Now its
the liberals turn to learn lesson about the Maritimers Harper called
defeatists Many of us still don't smoke dope be it legal or not N'esy
Pas?

Neo Caleb Anderson
Doing my part to vote PM Trudeau out of office. "Everything that has a
beginning has an end". Look forward to witnessing the end of this
current liberal government.

David Raymond Amos
Reply to @Neo Caleb Anderson: Thanks to Mr Prime Minister Trudeau The
Younger Donald Sutherland and I can finally vote too.

Methinks many folks know I am doing my part as an Independent in Fundy
Royal running against all the political parties for blatantly obvious
reasons for the 7th time I used to suggest that folks vote for the NDP
but now I say vote for me N'esy Pas?


Now back to efforts to expose the rampant public corruption within the
cyber world called Social Media


In the real world the awful truth I must confess that even if  I could
succeed in convincing every person I debated in front of in this
election to vote for me and I would stand a snowball's chance in hell
of getting elected in light of the fact that the corporate media won't
even mention the fact that I exist. Well guess who is blogging then
tweeting about this email? Simple Google my name go to my Twitter
account and you will find this email in its entirety with one of my
blogs.

As Dante once wrote sometimes from a small spark there came burst a
mighty flame and nearly everybody knows somebody with a smart phone
with a link to Facebook etc correct? Well we have a whole week before
the Fat Lady sings about the current circus commonly known as a
federal election..


Food for Thought try Googling "Nobody Will Say My Name" This YouTube
will be the top hit and few of my blogs as well

Dear Candidates,

We at the Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce are hosting a Meet the
Candidates evening
for local residents and businesses at the Hampton Middle School auditorium.
The evening is *Thursday, October 17th from 6:30pm to 9:00pm*.

We would really appreciate if you could attend this event. When I receive
confirmation, we will send along an agenda for the evening asap.

If you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to contact me.

Best regards,

Terry Seguin of CBC announced recently that only people with a
national leader could speak on his political panels. WOW I wonder if
he would dare announce such a thing if the lawyer Jody Wilson Raybould
or her gal pal Jane Philpott were running in the area.

Trust that there is an interesting circus coming to Hampton on Oct
17th exactly 4 years to the day that CBC published this VERY  partisan
BULLSHIT that I predicted.

For the record there was no mention of of any debates in Sussex or
Hampton until I shook some trees after I heard that I had been
excluded in some debates and dinners already. The same holds true with
getting Rogers TV to do something.

The event is scheduled for 2pm on Oct.12th. Please confirm whether you

Need I say that I don't believe the bullshit I heard this weekend as
to why Rogers TV edited the recording of our debate on Oct 8th. Their
many other YOUTUBE videos easily prove that they do not need releases
to publish what was said and done in PUBLIC. Nobody does.  I sincerely
believe the video of our debate was edited for VERY partisan political
reasons not legal reasons. No doubt some folks recall my recording
what was said. Now they know why.  Lets just call this an email about
YouTube from the past

Dear Mr. Amos,

Thank you for your follow up e-mail to me today. I was on days off
over the holidays and returned to work this evening. Rest assured I
was not ignoring or procrastinating to respond to your concerns.

As your attachment sent today refers from Premier Graham, our position
is clear on your dead calf issue: Our forensic labs do not process
testing on animals in cases such as yours, they are referred to the
Atlantic Veterinary College in Charlottetown who can provide these
services. If you do not choose to utilize their expertise in this
instance, then that is your decision and nothing more can be done.

As for your other concerns regarding the US Government, false
imprisonment and Federal Court Dates in the US, etc... it is clear
that Federal authorities are aware of your concerns both in Canada and
the US. These issues do not fall into the purvue of Detachment
policing in Petitcodiac, NB.

It was indeed an interesting and informative conversation we had on
December 23rd, and I wish you well in all of your future endeavors.

Sincerely,

Warren McBeath, Cpl.

Hello Lisa,
David Amos asked me to contact you. I met him last June after he became an
independent (not representing any political party) candidate in our
federal election
that was held June 28.

He was a candidate in our constituency of Fundy (now called Fundy-Royal).

I wrote a profile story about him, as I did all other candidates.

That story appeared in the Kings County Record June 22. A second story,
written by one of my reporters, appeared on the same date, which was a report
on the candidates' debate held June 18.

As I recall David Amos came last of four candidates in the election.The winner
got 14,997 votes, while Amos got 358.

I have attached the two stories that appeared, as well as a photo taken by
reporter Erin Hatfield during the debate. I couldn't find the photo
that ran, but
 this one is very similar.

Raising a Little Hell- Lively Debate Provokes Crowd

By Erin Hatfield

"If you don't like what you got, why don't you change it? If your
world is all screwed up, rearrange it."

The 1979 Trooper song Raise a Little Hell blared on the speakers at
the 8th Hussars Sports Center Friday evening as people filed in to
watch the Fundy candidates debate the issues. It was an accurate, if
unofficial, theme song for the debate.

The crowd of over 200 spectators was dwarfed by the huge arena, but as
they chose their seats, it was clear the battle lines were drawn.
Supporters of Conservative candidate Rob Moore naturally took the blue
chairs on the right of the rink floor while John Herron's Liberalswent
left. There were splashes of orange, supporters of NDP Pat Hanratty,
mixed throughout. Perhaps the loudest applause came from a row towards
the back, where supporters of independent candidate David Amos sat.

The debate was moderated by Leo Melanson of CJCW Radio and was
organized by the Sussex Valley Jaycees. Candidates wereasked a barrage
of questions bypanelists Gisele McKnight of the Kings County Record
and Lisa Spencer of CJCW.

Staying true to party platforms for the most part, candidates
responded to questions about the gun registry, same sex marriage, the
exodus of young people from the Maritimes and regulated gas prices.
Herron and Moore were clear competitors,constantly challenging each
other on their answers and criticizing each others’ party leaders.
Hanratty flew under the radar, giving short, concise responses to the
questions while Amos provided some food for thought and a bit of comic
relief with quirky answers. "I was raised with a gun," Amos said in
response to the question of thenational gun registry. "Nobody's
getting mine and I'm not paying 10 cents for it."

Herron, a Progressive Conservative MP turned Liberal, veered from his
party'splatform with regard to gun control. "It was ill advised but
well intentioned," Herron said. "No matter what side of the house I am
on, I'm voting against it." Pat Hanratty agreed there were better
places for the gun registry dollars to be spent.Recreational hunters
shouldn't have been penalized by this gun registry," he said.

The gun registry issues provoked the tempers of Herron and Moore. At
one point Herron got out of his seat and threw a piece of paper in
front of Moore. "Read that," Herron said to Moore, referring to the
voting record of Conservative Party leader Steven Harper. According to
Herron, Harper voted in favour of the registry on the first and second
readings of the bill in 1995. "He voted against it when it counted, at
final count," Moore said. "We need a government with courage to
register sex offenders rather than register the property of law
abiding citizens."

The crowd was vocal throughout the evening, with white haired men and
women heckling from the Conservative side. "Shut up John," one woman
yelled. "How can you talk about selling out?" a man yelled whenHerron
spoke about his fear that the Conservatives are selling farmers out.

Although the Liberal side was less vocal, Kings East MLA Leroy
Armstrong weighed in at one point. "You’re out of touch," Armstrong
yelled to Moore from the crowd when the debate turned to the cost of
post-secondary education. Later in the evening Amos challenged
Armstrong to a public debate of their own. "Talk is cheap. Any time,
anyplace," Armstrong responded.

As the crowd made its way out of the building following the debate,
candidates worked the room. They shook hands with well-wishers and
fielded questions from spectators-all part of the decision-making
process for the June 28 vote.

Cutline – David Amos, independent candidate in Fundy, with some of his
favourite possessions—motorcycles.

The Unconventional Candidate

David Amos Isn’t Campaigning For Your Vote, But….

By Gisele McKnight

FUNDY—He has a pack of cigarettes in his shirt pocket, a chain on his
wallet, a beard at least a foot long, 60 motorcycles and a cell phone
that rings to the tune of "Yankee Doodle."

Meet the latest addition to the Fundy ballot—David Amos.

The independent candidate lives in Milton, Massachusetts with his wife
and two children, but his place of residence does not stop him from
running for office in Canada.

One has only to be at least 18, a Canadian citizen and not be in jail
to meet Elections Canada requirements.

When it came time to launch his political crusade, Amos chose his
favourite place to do so—Fundy.

Amos, 52, is running for political office because of his
dissatisfaction with politicians.

"I’ve become aware of much corruption involving our two countries," he
said. "The only way to fix corruption is in the political forum."

The journey that eventually led Amos to politics began in Sussex in
1987. He woke up one morning disillusioned with life and decided he
needed to change his life.

"I lost my faith in mankind," he said. "People go through that
sometimes in midlife."

So Amos, who’d lived in Sussex since 1973, closed his Four Corners
motorcycle shop, paid his bills and hit the road with Annie, his 1952
Panhead motorcycle.

"Annie and I rode around for awhile (three years, to be exact)
experiencing the milk of human kindness," he said. "This is how you
renew your faith in mankind – you help anyone you can, you never ask
for anything, but you take what they offer."

For those three years, they offered food, a place to sleep, odd jobs
and conversation all over North America.

Since he and Annie stopped wandering, he has married, fathered a son
and a daughter and become a house-husband – Mr. Mom, as he calls
himself.

He also describes himself in far more colourful terms—a motorcyclist
rather than a biker, a "fun-loving, free-thinking, pig-headed
individual," a "pissed-off Maritimer" rather than an activist, a proud
Canadian and a "wild colonial boy."

Ironically, the man who is running for office has never voted in his life.

"But I have no right to criticize unless I offer my name," he said.
"It’s alright to bitch in the kitchen, but can you walk the walk?"

Amos has no intention of actively campaigning.

"I didn’t appreciate it when they (politicians) pounded on my door
interrupting my dinner," he said. "If people are interested, they can
call me. I’m not going to drive my opinions down their throats."

And he has no campaign budget, nor does he want one.

"I won’t take any donations," he said. "Just try to give me some. It’s
not about money. It goes against what I’m fighting about."

What he’s fighting for is the discussion of issues – tainted blood,
the exploitation of the Maritimes’ gas and oil reserves and NAFTA, to
name a few.

"The political issues in the Maritimes involve the three Fs – fishing,
farming and forestry, but they forget foreign issues," he said. "I’m
death on NAFTA, the back room deals and free trade. I say chuck it
(NAFTA) out the window.

NAFTA is the North American Free Trade Agreement which allows an
easier flow of goods between Canada, the United States and Mexico.

Amos disagrees with the idea that a vote for him is a wasted vote.

"There are no wasted votes," he said. "I want people like me,
especially young people, to pay attention and exercise their right.
Don’t necessarily vote for me, but vote."

Although…if you’re going to vote anyway, Amos would be happy to have
your X by his name.

"I want people to go into that voting booth, see my name, laugh and
say, ‘what the hell.’"


Thats some interesting history about Fundy Royal you don't see everyday EH?

Trudeau wears bulletproof vest after security threat delays campaign rally

Tactical officers surrounded Liberal leader as he addressed Mississauga, Ont., crowd

Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau wore a bulletproof vest on stage amid heavy security at a campaign rally after a security threat, senior Liberal sources tell CBC News.

His appearance at a crowded rally of about 2,000 supporters in Mississauga, Ont., on Saturday evening was delayed by 90 minutes and featured a much heavier security detail around Trudeau once the Liberal leader took the stage.

Uniformed tactical officers wearing heavy backpacks surrounded the Liberal leader as he addressed the crowd. His wife, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, was initially supposed to introduce him but did not appear on stage.


Trudeau delivered the speech without incident and shook hands with numerous supporters lining the stage and in the crowd as he left the venue.

When asked for more details, the Liberal Party said there would be no comment on Saturday night.

Heightened fears of violence


Saturday's extra security measures came amid heightened fears of violence on the campaign. Last month, sources told CBC News the RCMP were compiling daily threat reports on online hate targeting federal political leaders during the election campaign, fearing it could spill over into real-world violence.

Senior Liberal sources tell CBC, Justin Trudeau was wearing a bullet proof vest on stage for tonight’s rally, after a security threat. 

He was delayed by 1.5 hours and much heavier security around him once on stage. Here’s what our cameras picked up.

Government sources close to the file confirmed an increase in online posts condoning violence during the campaign.

Just two weeks ago, Trudeau's security detail arrested a protester who approached the Liberal leader during the climate change strike march in Montreal.

In February, ahead of his testimony in front of the justice committee on the SNC-Lavalin affair, Michael Wernick, then-clerk of the Privy Council, warned of the dangers of rising hate on the campaign trail.

"I worry about the rising tides of incitements to violence when people use terms like 'treason' and 'traitor' in open discourse. Those are the words that lead to assassination," Wernick told committee members.

Methinks nobody should be surprised to see that Rogers TV had clipped the last half hour of their recording of a debate for the seat in Fundy Royal held in Sussex NB on October 8th when they finally posted within their channel YouTube. I have no doubt whatsoever the editing was done so that folks who did not attend the debate would have no idea what was said. Some folks woe were there that night have agreed that the things that were said about issues pertaining to Veterans, Climate Change and Pro Life was too much for the lawyer Rob Moore and the liberal incumbent to deal with so they said nothing at all. Their silence was a telling thing indeed N'esy Pas?

Scheer, Singh make confident pitch to voters, Trudeau targets both as polls move to favour Conservatives

Trudeau targets NDP, says 'only way to stop Conservative cuts' is to vote Liberal




Elise von Scheel · CBC News · Posted: Oct 12, 2019 2:55 PM ET

Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer is asking for a mandate to govern with increasing confidence as shifting polls favour his party to win the most seats for the first time in this campaign — while Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau pivots his attacks to the NDP and a resurgent Jagmeet Singh.

"I believe that Canadians are going to be very happy with that choice to vote Conservative," Scheer told supporters on Saturday in British Columbia.

The Liberals and Conservatives have been trading minuscule leads in the polls since the campaign kicked off in mid-September, with the Liberals favoured to win the most seats. Now, the CBC's Poll Tracker, an aggregate of publicly available polling, projects the Conservatives could snatch 140 seats, compared to 135 for the Liberals. It's still short of the 170-seat benchmark needed for a majority, but Scheer is capitalizing on the apparent movement.


"We're feeling very optimistic, very confident as to where we're at in this campaign," he said.

Asked what needs to happen to break into majority territory, Scheer reiterated some of the differences between himself and Trudeau, namely reducing deficits through eliminating "frivolous spending."

The Liberals have criticized Scheer for proposing a plan that could result in cuts to services and for his pitch to reduce spending on foreign aid by 25 per cent.

The Conservative leader also made a considerable pledge when a reporter asked him if he'd commit to keep every promise he's made in his platform.
Scheer responded, "Absolutely."

The Conservative leader has been campaigning on affordability, tax cuts and support for the country's natural resource sector, and says he's confident that message is resonating.


Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer says he is optimistic heading into the final stretch of the campaign. 0:50

"I'm very optimistic that Canadians are going to give us the mandate to implement that agenda," he said.

Scheer was announcing the names of the leaders for his proposed Commission on the Reduction of Government Subsidy Programs to Corporations — the first announcement hinting at the Conservatives' priorities for the first 100 days if elected — while he was in Singh's riding of Burnaby South on Saturday.

NDP 'can't stop Scheer': Trudeau


While Scheer and Trudeau have been primary opponents throughout the campaign, the Liberal leader pivoted his attacks on Saturday toward the newly boosted NDP at a rally near Toronto.

"The NDP couldn't stop Stephen Harper," Trudeau said in Mississauga. "They couldn't stop Doug Ford. And they can't stop Andrew Scheer."

The Liberal leader turned the onus back on Canadians, saying the final choice rests with them in little more than a week.

"The only way to stop Conservative cuts is to vote Liberal."

Singh: You can vote orange


The NDP leader, who was campaigning in Brampton, Ont., asked voters to elect as many NDP candidates to Parliament as possible in an effort to push forward a progressive policies such as universal pharmacare, dental care and environmental protections.

The Liberals are proposing different versions of many of the NDP's platform promises.
"You can choose orange this time," Singh told the crowd.

A vote split between progressive left parties — New Democrats, Liberals and Greens — could be a factor in Canadian elections, and the NDP is trying not to fall victim to strategic voting at this time.

"I believe people should never be voting out of fear," Singh said later in the day.

Singh has never wavered in his goal to become prime minister, but acknowledged on Saturday it's a lofty one.


NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says his party can hold the balance of power in a minority government situation and push for NDP commitments such as pharmacare. 0:25

"I want to make it clear I want to be your prime minister so we can fight ... But either way, whatever Canadians choose I want Canadians to win no matter what."

The NDP has said it will only work with a minority government if that government supports health care, climate action and housing. Singh reiterated he would narrow the options further.

"We will not be working with the Conservatives."

Polls showed nothing but bad news for the NDP at the beginning of the campaign, but have reflected an uptick of support for the party after strong performances from Singh in the debates.

The party is now polling solidly in third, have edged away from a tight race with the Greens in recent days.

Reply to @Robert Paul: The Fat Lady ain't sung at the Circus yet and I get to play my part at the circus with one of clowns working for Harper 2.0. There will be a debate in Hampton on October 17th for the seat in Fundy Royal. Folks can't deny that this is the 3rd I have run against the lawyer Rob Moore. The last time was the Minister who oversaw ACOA and then became the "Shadow Cabinet Minister" for the Conservatives after the folks booted them all out their seats in the last election

Methinks many would agree that the liberals did not win the last election. The fact is that the majority of Canadians wanted to make certain that the Conservatives and the NDP lost and while Trudeau conned a lot of folks with his promises of electoral reform. Now its the liberals turn to learn lesson about the Maritimers Harper called defeatists Many of us still don't smoke dope be it legal or not N'esy Pas?

After the Bloc's gains in Quebec, Liberals now have another worry: a climbing NDP

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh has boosted his party's fortunes following last week's English-language debate

New Democrats looking at the polls are probably feeling pretty thankful today.

That's because the NDP is having a bit of a moment. Both the Liberals and Conservatives appear to be losing steam, while the New Democrats have momentum heading into the election campaign's crucial final week.

The debates have shaken up what was a very placid campaign in the polls. After good performances in the two French-language contests, Yves-François Blanchet is on a roll of his own in Quebec, where the Bloc Québécois has eaten into the Liberals' lead in the polls and their advantage in the seat count.


But now it seems that Singh's performance is starting to pay off. The leader who has probably done the most to improve his own personal image in the eyes of voters is now seeing it translate into new support for his party.

The CBC's Poll Tracker, an aggregation of all publicly available polling data, puts both the Conservatives and the Liberals under 33 per cent support countrywide and locked in the same close race that has prevailed throughout the campaign.

It is looking increasingly unlikely that either party will be able to win enough seats to form a majority government.

The New Democrats have jumped to 16.5 per cent support as of the Oct. 13 update of the Poll Tracker, representing a gain of two percentage points since Oct. 7 and the English-language debate (which, according to several polls, Singh won).
Over the same time span, the Liberals have slipped nearly three points and the Conservatives more than one. Neither the Greens nor the People's Party have seen the same kind of post-debate bump that the NDP has.

That surge has been particularly obvious in the last few days. Since Oct. 9, the NDP has averaged a gain of 0.7 percentage points per day in the Poll Tracker — a significant increase in an aggregation of multiple polls that is designed to smooth out the swings from individual surveys.


Those polls are unanimous that the NDP has made gains. Ten different pollsters in the field both before and after the English-language debate have recorded a gain of at least one point for the New Democrats, though where the NDP sits in the polls does vary widely. Two pollsters pegged the NDP's support to still be as low as 13 per cent while two others have put it as high as 20 per cent.

NDP putting pressure on Liberal seats


The NDP has seen gains in the Poll Tracker in every region of the country, but it has seen its biggest bumps in Quebec, Atlantic Canada and the Prairies. Notably, the increase of five points in Atlantic Canada has pushed the NDP back into third place and ahead of the Greens.

It now means the NDP — while still on track to lose nearly all of its seats in Quebec — could actually gain seats in the rest of the country, largely at the expense of the Liberals.
The Ontario numbers should be of particular concern for that party.

The New Democrats are polling at 17 per cent in the province, slightly better than the party's results in the 2015 federal election. That could win the NDP more seats in Ontario, because the Liberals are polling at 37 per cent in the province, down eight points from the last vote.

That kind of swing puts a number of Liberal seats at risk in Ontario. The Poll Tracker estimates there are 10 close Liberal-NDP contests in the province, including three in central Toronto and five in northern Ontario. The Liberals can't afford to lose those seats to the New Democrats when they are also trying to fight off the Conservatives in suburban Greater Toronto Area seats that the Liberals picked up four years ago.

Singh's campaign boosting the NDP


The credit for this shift has to lie with Singh. Polls are recording significant improvement in how Canadians view the NDP leader.

According to Abacus Data, 41 per cent of Canadians now have a positive impression of Singh. That's up nine points since before the English-language debate and 15 points since the beginning of the campaign.

Just 22 per cent of respondents say they hold a negative impression of Singh, giving him a net rating of +19. That compares quite well to Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer's net -17 score and Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau's -16.

Other polls have registered similar jolts in Singh's personal approval ratings. Nanos Research has found that Singh has more than doubled the proportion of Canadians who choose him as the best person to be prime minister. That number is now similar to the share of Canadians who intend to vote for the NDP. At the outset of the campaign, Singh trailed his party by a wide margin — he's now an asset rather than a liability.

So the pressure will be on Singh to keep the good times going for one more week — fending off the attacks from his rivals and surviving the extra scrutiny that comes with suddenly becoming an influential player in an election campaign.

For the Liberals, a perfect storm is in the making. Their re-election strategy rested on Quebecers and urban progressives. Gains by the Bloc and now the New Democrats are starting to chip away at the two pillars of that strategy.

Who else is tired of Liberals telling us what everyone else is thinking and trying scare people into voting one way or another. Maybe in 4 years they can come with a new leader and campaign on a solid platform.

Reply to @David Baker: Methinks for some strange reason the political pundits forgot how this clever lawyer in the fancy suits won the leadership of the NDP and why so many quit the party because of him N'esy Pas?

CBC taking Conservative Party to court over online election ad

Public broadcaster takes federal party to court over using its TV clips in campaign commercial

The CBC is taking the Conservative Party of Canada to court for using the broadcaster's footage in an online advertisement.

In a legal application to the Federal Court of Canada, the CBC served notice it wants the Conservative Party of Canada and its executive director, Dustin Van Vugt, to acknowledge the party "engaged in the unauthorized use of copyright-protected material."

The court documents filed Thursday listed The National co-host Rosemary Barton and parliamentary bureau reporter John Paul Tasker as applicants in the filing, along with the CBC.


In a statement Saturday, Jennifer McGuire, CBC News general manager and editor in chief, and Luce Julien, general director of information programming for Radio-Canada, said the court filing would be amended to remove the names of the journalists as applicants.

"To be clear, CBC/Radio Canada was the driver of this process, not the journalists," the statement said. "CBC/Radio Canada named and added the journalists to the application because their images and content were used inappropriately. In order to avoid any confusion about the role of Rosemary Barton and John Paul Tasker, we intend to file an amendment to remove their names as applicants when the court opens on Tuesday."

CBC-Radio Canada named the journalists in the lawsuit, according to the statement, "because their images and journalism were misused for partisan purposes negatively impacting perceptions of their independence."

The application says the video, titled "Look at What We've Done," was published around Oct. 4 on a Conservative Party website (notasadvertised.ca), a Facebook page and a YouTube page.

It says the video includes footage from The National, Power & Politics and a CBC Politics broadcast of a town hall attended by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. It includes footage of Barton and Tasker, as well as "At Issue" panelist Andrew Coyne and commentator Rex Murphy.

CBC/Radio-Canada holds the copyright on all those clips, the application says.


It also says the clips were "taken out of context and are edited and relied on to make partisan points for the benefit" of the party.

In response, the Conservatives used the lawsuit as a fundraising pitch, arguing in an email to supporters that CBC "footage should be usable by those who fund them."

The party is asking for donations so that it can "hit back hard" against "this attack on free expression."

As well, the Conservative Party says in a statement on its website that it plans to fight the CBC legal action.

"The Conservative Party has grave concern that this decision was made on the eve of an election that CBC is to be covering fairly and objectively," the statement says. "The Conservative Party considers this a complete distraction in the final days of a tightly contested election, and we will dispute this lawsuit fully."

The court document filed by CBC says several letters were sent to the Conservative Party to take down the ad in question on Oct. 7 and 8. It came down on Oct. 10.

The application also says the Conservative Party has repeatedly made similar violations, both recently and in the run-up to the 2015 election.

In their statement, McGuire and Julien said they received no assurance from the Conservative Party that it wouldn't happen again, so "it is therefore critical for us to provide clarity through the court to safeguard the integrity and professional independence of our journalism and our journalists."
