Quebec’s NDP Support Was No Leap Left
The poll reveals that not only did urban and rural Quebecers vote NDP, so did anglophones and francophones – a convergence of voting intentions that has not been seen since the days of Pierre Trudeau.

Buh-Bye Gilles.
Fourteen-something hours ago, I stated the following:
http://twitter.com/#!/stephdau/status/65076438101008384A few days ago, I even stated on Facebook that I had made my peace with the fact that my (NDP) vote would not really count in my riding, the latter being Gilles Duceppe’s, the Bloc QuĂ©bĂ©cois party leader. I also said I’d still be voting regardless, as my civic duty is important to me.
Well… Am I ever glad I (and 20k+ others) did! Here’s what happened later that day:
Bloc QuĂ©bĂ©cois leader Gilles Duceppe announced last night he was stepping down as Bloc leader after his party took its worst drubbing in its nearly two decades of existence. […] Bloc leader Gilles Duceppe failed to clinch his own seat in Laurier-Sainte-Marie, losing to NDP neophyte HĂ©lĂ©ne LaverdiĂšre.
via Bloc leader Gilles Duceppe resigns after losing seat.
Even better, he didn’t even lose to what might have been his usual competition (Liberal). Double whammy.
To put things in perspective, here are the previous election’s results, compared to this one, in Laurier-Sainte-Marie:
- 2008:
- Block Québécois: 24,103 votes
- Liberal: 8,798 votes
- New Democratic Party: 8,209 votes
- 2011:
- New Democratic Party: 23,377 votes
- Block Québécois: 17,984 votes
- Liberal: 4,976 votes

Tommy Guerrero, Featured
Check out Van’s “Collaboratory – Tommy Guerrero – Part 1” on OffTheWall.TV
I first heard of Tommy Guerrero when he and I were young skaters, back in the late 80s. He was part of the Bones Brigade and is, through the latter’s videos, the source of some of the earliest memories I have of San Francisco as the truly amazing city that it is.
Fast forward a couple of decades and Tommy is more active than ever, as a skater (business side), a musician (and guitar store and recording studio owner) as well as a designer. A well rounded man, after my own heart. He has always been, is and will likely always be one of my true idols.
