A hotly contested riding, if the debate in discussion forums is anything to go by. Our impression is that McGregor continues to have the momentum in this race and that she is the one to back. In addition, we think that Liberal climate policy is the most solid. See recent support from scientists and economists noted on our home page.
In any case, local voters are best positioned to determine who has the best shot at taking this riding. We hope pragmatic voters will put their heads together and make the right choice. Good luck on the 14th -- here's hoping you take this one away from the Conservatives!
Please keep in mind our recommendations are based on a review of previous outcomes, election prediction sites and the commentary of pundits and constituents. Every riding is unique, and recommendations based on regional polling trends do not necessarily capture that. You are best situated to make the call on who to vote for. The most important thing you can do is talk to your friends and neighbours, assess the local race yourself, and make an informed decision as to who has the best chance of keeping the Conservative out of office. Work together!

Please see our suggestions on the "Get Involved" page. For some additional tips on how to encourage voter turn out and support recommended candidates, check out The Department of Culture.
We encourage you to support the recommended candidate, but they have to realise you are doing this because you want action on climate change. Please keep the pressure on over the next two weeks!
