| Description | Every general election, political parties rush to find candidates to fill all available ridings, regardless of how winnable they are. Some are incumbents and political veterans, some are star candidates, others are party activists or promising newcomers. Inevitably, some candidates will have embarrassing details of their past revealed during the campaign, forcing the party leadership to make a difficult decision: Ask the candidate to step down, or hope the scandal blows over?
