There's also mention of public WiFi in stations. 😄

Pablo Rodriguez resigned from cabinet as he plans to run for the leadership of the Quebec Liberal Party. Anita Anand is the new Minister of Transportation.

Usually you remove the undecided voters. That leaves the PCPO at 41% which is more in line with what you normally see but you're right that it shows the Ontario Liberals closing the gap.

Let's not compare GDP with stock market capitalization.

You're going to need wider curves, the problem is that you're going to need to curve both right and left.
