There are, as of today, two upcoming federal by-elections in Canada. One is in the Montreal riding of Bourassa and the other is in Bob Rae's former riding, Toronto Centre. The Pirate Party is looking for candidates to run in both of these by-elections. If you know someone who you think will make a good community leader, please recruit them or ask one of our PC officers to talk to them. This is a good opportunity to bring the various pirate issues to the spotlight especially at this time of rampant privacy violation and Intellectual Property abuses.

There is also one possible opening at Manitoba's Provencher Electoral District. Winnipeg Sun just reported that Vic Toews is set to retire. http://www.winnipegsun.com/2013/06/25/vic-toews-set-to-retire-from-politics
