Something like a Dash-8 would have been sufficient to carry him and the Quebec press corps, and would be able to get into the smaller runways in northern communities — I’m just guessing, though.

If Layton didn’t use a jet, he must have had a slow campaign of it criss-crossing the country.

I doubt Layton and Duceppe had campaign jets.

If so, the line dude could gesture all he liked, but the plane won’t move.
