Ego and sore-loserism
My column this week on Loonie Politics looks at some of the more contentious nomination contests that we've seen recently, in particular in Ottawa–Orleans, and why it's a lot of sound and fury signifying nothing – particularly the accusations that these nominations aren't open as promised, because green light processes do matter.
A freelance journalist in the Parliamentary Press Gallery. I contribute to Blacklock's Reporter and Loonie Politics, and wrote the Politics on TV column for Macleans.ca. I served as the Political Editor for Outlooks - Canada's GLBT Magazine, and have contributed to the Xtra chain, Ottawa Xpress, the Hill Times, the Ottawa Citizen, iPolitics.ca and The Canadian Press. I'm also an occasional talking head on CTV News Channel.
