How long did it take to ask all of Canada for its opinions about Harper and Trudeau?
I kid, but I actually don't know if I see much evidence that voters are "scared" of Trudeau. I do think he has (after holding a significant advantage for most of the year) opened the door to Harper a little by showing himself to be a bit weak on foreign policy.
This will be an interesting election cycle, but we should keep in mind that the battleground will not be suburban Calgary, but suburban Toronto and rural Ontario, and areas like that. It's pretty hard in Calgary to get a sense of the mood on the street where it really matters.
