The leaders tours for the Conservatives, Liberals, NDP and Greens are all in Atlantic Canada today.
Stephane Dion began the day in Dieppe, NB, near Moncton, a riding held by Liberal Brian Murphy. He then went to PEI where all four ridings in the province are held by his party.
Harper, on the other hand, is in ridings his party does not hold. He started the day in Yarmouth, NS, where Liberal Robert Thibault is the MP. Right now, I am at his rally in Moncton.
Former New Brunswick premier Bernard Lord played on this in his speech introducing Harper:
"It's not a coincidence that after the prime minister won the debates, that he has decided to come to New Brunswick two days in a row and only to visit Liberal ridings. At the same time, we have Stephane Dion fighting for his job as leader of the opposition who was also visiting Liberal ridings. I think that tells you something very important."
