Hello and welcome to montrealgazette.com and welcome to our Election 2015 edition of Drawing Conclusions with Montreal Gazette cartoonist Terry Mosher, aka, Aislin.

As we approach the end of the longest federal election campaign in modern Canadian history, we asked Terry about how he felt having to contend with 79 days of occasionally outrageous politicking as well as cartooning the son of a Canadian prime minister who, if you believe the polls, appears poised to get the same job as his father. We also asked Terry whether his approach to political cartooning had changed since he penned a cartoon of Lester B. Pearson (the prime minister, not the school board) back in 1967.

Click on the audio player below and listen to what Terry had to say. And remember, you can listen to all of our podcasts here or on iTunes, and follow us on Facebook for the latest from montrealgazette.com. You can also go to our iPad edition and take a look at an animation of how Terry went about creating the cartoon that illustrates this podcast. And as you listen look below at some of the cartoons Terry produced over the course of this campaign.

The controversy created over a Conservative proposal to ban face coverings at citizenship ceremonies, sparked by the refusal of a Muslim woman to remove her face veil while taking the oath of citizenship also caught Terry’s attention…

As a cartoonist based in Montreal, Terry was also concerned with the political progress of this province’s Bloc Québécois…

Aislin 091615

And, of course, the varying fortunes of the NDP…

Aislin 093015

And finally, with a campaign this long and Ontario’s vote playing a such a big role in the outcome, it was only a matter of time before…
