IF

the election result in Nova Scotia is anything to go by…

THEN

the federal Liberals will have a lot of work to do in this campaign…

BECAUSE

they likely won’t be able to campaign strictly on their response to the pandemic. The Progressive Conservatives overturned a Liberal minority and gained a majority largely campaigning on their solutions to the province’s health care system, whereas the Liberals banked on their pandemic track record. Given the federal election campaign is now underway, both the federal Liberals and Conservatives will be learning from Nova Scotia’s decisions.
