Neither Levy the person nor levy the sales tax was able to overturn the Liberal stronghold of St. Paul's yesterday, as voters selected Eric Hoskins (Liberal) to be their new MPP by a roomy 19% margin.

Take one pulls-no-punches City Hall columnist (er, make that Socialist Silly Hall columnist) and one philanthropically inclined but imported M.D., blend with a controversial sales tax adjustment, add a soupçon of Guinness Record–level persistence, and what do you get? One by-election, ready to serve on September 17. The electoral district of St. Paul's is, as you may have heard, in the midst of a by-election campaign, and because we are big fans of well-chosen representation we have created a central hub at which you can see all of our St. Paul's coverage in one place. It includes a profile of the riding and a map showing handy things like candidate campaign offices and advance polling locations. Read, be enlightened, and get ready to vote!

Sue Ann Levy really doesn’t like the Liberals' proposed Harmonized Sales Tax.
