Something’s Happening Here. What it is Ain’t Exactly Clear

Two new polls out today show the NDP edging ahead of the Bloc inQuebec. If that continues on E-Day then we’re looking at 4+ NDP MP’s fromQuebec. That would includeGatineau, Hull-Aylmer and Jeanne Le Ber. It may also include:

 Abitibi – Baie-James – Nunavik – Eeyou

 This riding is a real four-way race according to a Leger poll conducted for Radio Nordthis poll that shows all parties being within 10 points of each other. Here is the NDP hopeful.

Romeo Saganash originates from Waswanipi. He has been very active politically and in advocacy groups for almost 30 years. In 1985, he founded the Cree Nation Youth Council. His interest in regional economic development got him involved in many Aboriginal businesses such as Creeco Inc. and the Eeyou Society ofJames Bay.

His commitment and his studies in law have led him to hold important position within the Grand Council of Crees, first as Deputy Grand Chief, and then as Director of Quebec relations and international affairs. Mr. Saganash was vice-chairman of the Cree Regional Authority he also chaired the James Bay Advisory Committee on the Environment between 1997 and 2000.
