Pedneault is running in the Montreal riding of Outremont but is seen as a longshot.
Can he choose where he runs? If so, why not choose a riding where he has a better chance of winning? He sounds incredibly qualified.

Holy shit!
I read bios like this and I ask myself what the fuck have I been doing with my life.
Impressive bio, only to become what amounts to a political practical joke
only to become what amounts to a political practical joke
Why? Because Pedneault decided to stick to principles rather than capitulate and join a big tent party?
First-past-the-post is the joke not Jonathan Pedneault. It’s dirty to attack the small parties when the liberals and conservatives hold too much power.
The joke is being co-leader of a party. The greens consistently show that they aren't actually serious about forming government
Nah, co-leaders are fine.
I find it hard myself to find him a serious option when he is co-leader with May as if he's her young apprentice or something. May either needs to keep leadership or step down.
To me it's just a bad look.
That is a poor excuse to look down at someone. Look at their character and track record instead.
It's not just that, but how would co-leader even work? Will May be calling the shots? Or Him? What if they disagree on something?
