The article mentions that the weather was affecting flights home for workers, not affecting the ability to vote. In this case, there’s no need to delay the vote. The workers could’ve kept working and should’ve been offered accommodations due to a delayed flight home.

Waiting for the storm to pass would’ve included polling stations opening, remaining opening until voting closed, and accommodating workers who wouldn’t have been able to leave on a plane as scheduled. Denying Canadians the ability to vote on election day so that the workers could ensure they made it home as scheduled to not be inconvenienced is unacceptable.

Edit: I was partially wrong, accessing locations was part of the article: “In several cases, it was not possible to recruit local teams. In other cases, harsh weather conditions have prevented access to communities.”

Anti-Conservative sentiment in Quebec. The Bloc is never going to hold a majority, so strategically at this time the Liberals were the obvious choice to keep the Conservatives out of power. Among other things.
