For Trudeau, there’s a carbon silver lining in this week’s P.E.I. election. Even though it brought the defeat of yet another Liberal government, incoming premier-designate Dennis King of the Progressive Conservatives said he won’t be joining his fellow conservative premiers in opposing the federal carbon tax: “I believe Islanders want us to participate in a carbon-reduction plan.”
According to a Globe analysis of Elections Canada’s political donation database, 25 per cent of the 289 judges appointed or promoted by Trudeau had donated to the Liberal Party of Canada, compared to six per cent to the Conservative, NDP and Green parties, while 90.9 per cent of the $322,000 donated by the judges went to the Liberals.
