I have toured the riding of Barrie and in the Orillia area. As far as I can see be the sign war, the battles in this area is between the Conservatives and the Liberals. The NDP and Greens may make some head way but that is unlikely. The last time the NDP won in this area was at the provincial level in 1990.

I would categorize Barrie right now as too-close-to-call. The Liberals can win if they remind voters of the Conservative candidate’s shameless self-promotion using taxpayers money with massive mailings which were blatantly partisan. If the national Liberal campaign can can more agressive then this may happen here in Barrie.
