person not notable - as a politician, never nominated to represent party in election Mayumashu (talk) 01:50, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

• Agreed. Though I must say that article is remarkably NPOV for one of these candidate bio articles. So let's delete it but I hope that the author(s) stay to work on other articles. --JGGardiner (talk) 01:59, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
• Disagreed. Candidate is now seeking new office. Also, still retains official position with local Party as 'Potential Nomination Contestant' in case of unforeseen circumstances rendering Candidate incapable of seeking office. This title remains until official writ is dropped for the 40th Canadian General Election. My suggestion is to keep. Rest assured that the main author will stay on to work on other articles.--Chillin841 (talk) 02:38, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

I do note that he's still a potential candidate and that he is seeking party office. Nothing is set in stone but, in general, we haven't included candidates for parliament unless they are otherwise notable like, say, Lewis Mackenzie or something happens in the election which makes them notable, like Kevin Potvin or David Oliver. Usually they go on lists like Liberal Party candidates, 2006 Canadian federal election. --JGGardiner (talk) 08:37, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
