  2. Beddome is the MLA in my neighbourhood and I kind of wanted to vote for him based on the fact that he kind of looks like David Tennant.

  7. If I'd seen this before voting, I'd have written in Winnipeg Cat!

    Also, for what it's worth (not much), James was a classmate of mine in law school. He's not a bad guy.
