A Wine Tasting for Political Connoisseurs in Moncton: Red or Blue?
This Saturday Moncton political connoisseurs can get a taste for two of the political leaders. Both Stephane Dion and Stephen Harper will be attending events in the metro area tomorrow. While these rallies will most likely be little bit more lively than the Green Train's stop in Moncton I doubt they will have the personal touch that Elizabeth May brings with her whistlestops.
For those of you with taste for red, Stephane Dion will be at the Dieppe Farmer's Market at 8am and immediately after he will be attending a rally at Crystal Palace at 9:15. The Liberal leader, in my opinion, had an impressive showing at the debate but hopefully with stops around the country he can shake the negative image he has been stuck with since the beginning of the campaign. Can he lead?
If your palate has a craving for blue, the Conservative leader will be at Harrison Trimble at 2:45 for what I can only imagine will be a lively rally. I am just putting this out there but my prediction is that our Prime Minister will be sporting a sweater over a collared shirt. Do not expect any hugs from big blue though as he is not as cuddly as the Green's Elizabeth May (just as the Harper kids who received affectionate pats on the shoulder and handshakes when they were dropped off to school by dear old dad).
So expect to see some election busses on the road this weekend as Moncton takes center stage on the election trail. Dont worry it will all be over soon.
