WELLINGTON-HALTON HILLS POLITICAST #458 – Runnin' Up That Hilson (feat. Alex Hilson)
According to the latest polls, the governing PCs might be in minority government territory, and the spoiler might be a revitalized Liberal Party. In Wellington-Halton Hills it will be a big climb because while this seat is open, the Liberals finished fourth in a close race for second in 2022. Is there the possibility that without Ted Arnott on the ballot that voters might be willing to take a closer look at the man from Acton? When he was last elected in 2022, Arnott won more votes than the NDP, Greens, Liberals, and New Blue combined. Incumbency has its...

If you follow Mike Schreiner’s campaign schedule, you will note that he’s oscillating between four different ridings: Guelph (obviously), Kitchener-Centre, Parry Sound-Muskoka, and, as you...
