Michelle Ferreri of the Conservative Party is a good story teller, but she spread misinformation, skirted some questions entirely, and presented policies that amount to a nothing burger. The crowd was not favourable to her, with some jeers, boos, and yelling.

Emma Harrison of the Liberal Party was a bit shaky at times and is finding her footing. I was surprised she supports UBI. I find her humility in admitting what she does not know and her commitment to listen to the constituents admirable.

Heather Ray of the NDP party also had a great showing tonight. The crowd reacted very positively to much of her policy proposals. She was relatable and warm. Much more relaxed tonight and very passionate about the issues.

In my opinion, Jazmine Raine of the Green Party won this debate. She was the strongest public speaker, proposed the most evidence-based and bold policies, exuded empathy and integrity, and had the crowd erupting in cheers every time she spoke. Very genuine.
