We now have a minority of MLAs who have not taken a position. As Brent Toderian has tweeted: “I will be disappointed by anything less than vocal, persuasive arguments for a yes-vote from our local MLAs.” Indeed, the question is now not so much their position but why they are avoiding taking one. Depending on the outcome of the vote, that’s going to be hard to justify.
So credit to the following:
