Campaign Insider - "Michael's In Town"

Michael Ignatieff appeared in London yesterday, donning a pair of Converse red running shoes and declaring he was ready for the dash to the finish. With only a few hour's notice, it was a scramble to get ready for his arrival. Other than his voice being a little hoarse, he was far more energized than I thought he would be at the end of a gruelling and confusing campaign. The London West Liberal candidate Doug Ferguson and I had some time with him in his bus yesterday. Michael seemed casual and comfortable during the discussion, confessing that this was the kind of political campaign no one really saw coming.Then it was off to a flower shop, where he purchased his wife some flowers and sampled some local food, before getting back on the bus and heading to Kitchener. Whatever transpires for him on Monday, he has been able to mobilize the Liberal base and put forward some solid policy alternatives to the Conservatives. I've known him now for almost five years, but I've never seen him more determined to make Canada great again. He has earned my respect over and over again, and his stop in London reminded me once more why a renewed vision for this country really matters.http://youtu.be/Zp2OO6LXuhM
