An Inconvenient Number
Everybody and his dog knows by now that if you ask millions of Conservative-hating Canadians if they seen somethin' in the woodshed during the run-up to last year's federal election, they're going to respond in the affirmative by the tens of thousands. But there's another far more important number that hasn't been released, or at least, a number that certainly hasn't been widely reported, if it's been reported at all, a number that the reporters at the CBC and other anti-Conservative media could surely use their investigative smarts to come up with: precisely how many complaints did Elections Canada receive in the days immediately following the last federal election - as opposed to nine months later, after ample prompting - from voters who said they didn't get to cast their ballot because they'd been directed to the wrong polling station?Surely Elections Canada keeps a records of such things, and would be happy to release the number – heck, you'd think they have a duty to release the number.
Bet it's a really interesting number.
