Like many Canadians, my voting decisions are formed through negative influences rather than positive ones. No one who has read my blogging efforts, I think, will be surprised to learn that I don't support the Conservative Party, and many have assumed therefore that I support the Liberals. I have voted Liberal in the past, and may in the future, but probably will not this time. (I say 'probably' because I find the Conservative candidate in my riding deeply unsatisfactory, and only the Liberal candidate stands a reasonable chance of defeating him. I may in the end hold my nose and vote Liberal.)
But it strikes me that an important principle that I believe in is that there are candidates in all parties who would be an asset to Canada, and others who deserve support to keep unworthy candidates from holding office.
Therefore I've set myself an exercise, and encourage all bloggers to do likewise: to endorse candidates from across the country in all parties and give a brief rationale.

Bob. As it happens, I was planning to include CPC candidates in my first round. As for the 'Liberal blogger' who emailed Stamp. That was not me, nor did I know of this other person's efforts until after I had made my posts. (That emailer discusses his actions at this babble thread.)
Buckets, I was not the person who emailed Stamp either, although I was working (independently of you) to expose him.
I had no need to get his confirmation of identity, because in addition to the information you had, the article about him and his wife in the Edmonton Journal that he posted on FD allowed me to find several posts on FD identifying her conclusively.
Gordon Stamp has only his own egotism and need to impress others with his own importance to blame for his downfall. All the information was there for anyone who cared to put the pieces together.
Oops. My apologies RB. Who did send that email?
I have no idea. I suppose it might have been the blogger who I was giving my material to, since I found all the other stuff before I found proof of his identity.
