Provinces

<- More numbers below the fold

A little news in the provinces.
A by-election in Newfoundland has been won by a Liberal. Marshall Dean is the first new face for the Newfoundland Liberals elected in a decade.

There have been few polls in the provinces, but this also means there are a few polls in the provinces. In nearly every province, the government is due to re-elect a majority. New Brunswick, Ontario, and Quebec, however, are all very close two way races between the two main parties. We do not expect elections in any province for at least a year.
