    Cannon les 2 doigts dans le nez avec une assez bonne majorité….

  2. Stephane Larochelle September 22nd, 2008 at 8:48 am 2

    Je suis pas conservateur mais je dois avouer que oui, Cannon gagnera avec une belle majorité…

  3. Cédric Tessier September 25th, 2008 at 8:49 am 3

    La candidate libérale, unilingue anglophone, pourrait venir brouiller les cartes.

  4. Frédéric Picard September 26th, 2008 at 9:37 pm 4

    Cannon, sans aucun doute.

    Je suis surpris, quand même, des résultats du bloc
    en 2006. On parle du Pontiac là …

  5. Jean-Luc Proulx September 27th, 2008 at 5:04 am 5

    Réélection facile de Lawrence Cannon!

  6. Masham40 October 5th, 2008 at 3:18 am 6

    All of the above messages seem to have been written by the same person….

    To correct a comment made in one of those messages, Cindy DuncanMcMillan is not a unilignual Anglo. Her French while not perfect seems to work well when she is campaigning.

    Cannon is not a good campaigner and is considered aloof and distant by many of the Pontiac residents.

    It will be very interesting to see what happens on Election night as the votes are counted. Ms McMillan is very well-known in the entire riding, with perhaps the exception of Buckingham and Masson-Angers, through her work over many years in the agricultural and conservation sectors.

    Le charismatique ministre Cannon sera probablement réélu, avec une bonne majorité.

  8. Maxime October 10th, 2008 at 6:58 am 8

    Au contraire, la réélection de Cannon sera difficile. Le Bloc et les libéraux ont la même chance qu’elle de l’emporter. Même si Pontiac est une des circonscriptions les plus fédéraliste au pays.

  9. Fred St-Jean October 10th, 2008 at 4:45 pm 9

    Pour une circonscription fédéraliste… 2400 voix de majorité en 2006 c’est relativement peu. Cannon a été élu sur une vague conservatrice.

    2008 la vague n’est plus la, le bloc reprend du poils de la bête et ils iront chercher des votes dans les région plus éloigné du centre du compté.

    Victoire de Cannon mais beaucoup plus serré, peut être 1000 voix !
