When Harper tried to be relatable but it was just creepy
It’s pretty much like when your dad tries to be cool, but isn’t successful. It’s a weird and quite frankly, a little bit sad.

When CPC candidate Jerry Bance was caught peeing in a mug
The resulting online response to these shenanigans are not to be understated.
When it became glaringly obvious the Harper didn’t vet his candidates well
Late into the game various Conservative candidates were dropping like flies. Jerry Bance’s #peegate debacle wasn’t the only cause for scandal that resulted in a Conservative candidate being dropped. Tim Dutard CPC candidate in Toronto-Danforth was also ousted for making sexually explicit and discriminatory prank calls on youtube. There’s also the issue of Jagdish Grewal who was dropped for touting therapies that turn gay youth straight.

Elizabeth May’s Badassery
Nobody can hold Elizabeth May down. When excluded from the Globe & Mail leaders debate on the economy, she decided to host her own live stream online. She responded in real time to Harper’s, Mulcair’s and Trudeau’s comments and frankly she had the last say, because well, they couldn’t exactly rebut over live stream. So, Elizabeth May FTW!

Hamilton NDP candidate Alex Johnstone came under fire for not knowing what Aushwitz was and even made reference to phallic symbols in relation to it. The situation got even worse when it was revealed Johnstone is a school board trustee.
When a Jack-O-Lantern voted and everyone was totall chill about it
