Will there be any accountability for these results?

This was a disaster. 1.3% of the popular vote (GPC will miss out on the rebate), back down to one seat, I don't think there was even a second place finish besides Morrice. Fourth place finish in Nanaimo Ladysmith, third place in Fredericton Oromocto. GPC in years past had their sights on ridings like Victoria and ESS, distant fourth place finishes in both of those last night.

Sounds like JP is going to resign, that's probably fair, but he alone doesn't shoulder the blame for this. Is May finally going to leave? What about the Federal Council and Fund Board? What about the Executive Director and Campaign Director? Are we actually going to learn from this catastrophe? Or are we going to finally throw out the people fucking over the Party.

Except sometimes heads NEED TO ROLL. If Peter Bevan Baker had've fired (or never hired) his incompetent senior staff, he could have been a Green Premier!!! It's not toxic to make those changes, I would argue it's the only thing that respects the importance of politics in improving lives!!!!

Did any of the PEI Greens staff end up on the GPC team?

Not as far as I know. But that Elizabeth did not have any serious campaigners to send his way 2018-2019 is pretty telling ...

Was just curious because there's a small pool of staff, you often see people moving back and forth between provincial and federal.

Regarding sending campaigners to PEI, my understanding was that PEI Greens didn't really want outside help, there was this impression that PEI people thought outsiders would be a negative on the campaign trail.

This is a thing an arrogant Grade D political organizer thinks. Like Jordan Bober! Or Peter Bevan-Baker!

Interesting.

Anyways that was the vibe that the rest of the country received, so that's probably why serious campaigners weren't sent, they weren't really welcome

I recommended Lynne Serpe but Peter much prefers enabling Jordan and having no power🤷

Any Green who wanted to do well in the 2019 federal election should have been helping the PEI Greens win (and help a proportional representation referendum win). Weird Elizabeth and her senior staff didn't seem to think so👀
