News: artin has promised to call an election within 30 days of the release of the second part of a report into a corruption scandal in his Liberal Party. The document is expected Feb. 1, likely prompting elections in the first week of April.
The last time Canadians were forced to deal with politicians and think about national issues over the holidays was in 1979, when Joe Clark's minority Conservative government was toppled just weeks before Christmas. The vote was delayed until February, however, when Pierre Trudeau and the Liberals took back Parliament.
Recent polls have given the Liberals a slight lead over the Conservatives, with the NDP in third. Those same surveys suggest the Bloc would sweep the French-speaking province of Quebec, making a majority government unlikely no matter which party wins the most seats in the 308-member House of Commons.
