jdobbin Posted June 24, 2007 Report Posted June 24, 2007 http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/stor...0623?hub=Canada Reports say former Liberal MP Joe Comuzzi will soon join the Conservatives, months after he left his party over a budget vote.Prime Minister Stephen Harper will announce the move on Tuesday, according to the Thunder Bay Chronicle-Journal newspaper. The jump would make him the first Conservative MP for Thunder Bay-Superior North in more than 70 years. Tory member Donald James Cowan won the seat in 1930, when the riding was called Port Arthur. Comuzzi told Liberal Leader Stephane Dion he would support the Conservative budget on March 21, because it was important for his riding. The budget promised millions of dollars for Thunder Bay's Molecular Medicine Research Centre -- although, as of yet, no money has been announced. I wonder if that means he is running again. Quote

Michael Bluth Posted June 24, 2007 Report Posted June 24, 2007 What will Steve do with the conservative nominated in that riding? Has one been nominated? If so, Prime Minister Harper will probably ask him to step aside for the good of the party. It ain't rocket surgery.... Quote No one has ever defeated the Liberals with a divided conservative family. - Hon. Jim Prentice
