JCT: In Googling for John Turmel, I found that Parliament's
web site had me listed. Doing a search, I got over 200 hits
but my page was incomplete:

JCT: Their trivia page used to have a listing at
http://www2.parl.gc.ca/Parlinfo/compilations/Trivia/Trivia.aspx
Canadian Parliamentary Trivia
a page where you will find fascinating facts such as
the longest serving Prime Minister
the first woman appointed Minister of the Crown
the youngest Senator
the first MP of Chinese origin
the shortest session of Parliament
the number of electoral ties broken by the Returning Officer
and much more.

JCT: If you clicked "Guinness Book of Records", you got to a
page on John Turmel listing 5 of my 27 elections. But an
empty picture slot, no party affilition. So I sent a
message and got this confirmation.

JCT: So did Parliament's website complete their page on me?
No, they deleted most of their links to my page. Including
the reference to the Guinness Record!

Ah well, I'm used to it. The Guinness Book of Record itself
deleted my record from their international online database.
"Most elections contested" can't be found. So being deleted
from a national database isn't all that important. It's just
that why is interesting.
