    I thought the other parties didn’t run candidates in pm ridings out of mutual respect

      Not only are there other candidates in PP’s riding, there happens to be about 90 of them!

      That’s right, there’s about 90 people running for MP in Ottawa-Carleton. And I find that to be rather funny.

      The advocacy group Longest Ballot, which tries to get as many candidates as possible on a ballot to call attention to the idea of an independent electoral reform process, told CBC News it is targeting Carleton.

      Because of this, there are about 90 candidates on the final ballot.
