But an Easter election is ok?

Sinister Thoughts points out something that I had not considered.

...What they don't mention is if we have an election campaign in March and an election in April, that will "interrupt" Lent and maybe even Easter. Since Lent and Easter are much more important events on the Christian calendar than Christmas, why are they not raising this objection to the Liberals?

The Liberal plan has an election on April 10th. The day after Palm Sunday, right in the middle of Passion Week and right at the end of Lent.

I agree with Sinister Thoughts, to praticing Catholics (of which I include myself) Easter is much more important than Christmas. Easter is the central event in Christianity (do I really need to explain this?) but somehow the Liberals do not seem concerned.

But you know this already. The reason they don't want a Christmas election is that they are buying time. Any other argument is nonsense.
