More on Michael Ignatieff
Description from Wikipedia:
Michael Grant Ignatieff (pronounced: /ɪɡˈnɑːtʃəf/; born May 12, 1947) is a Canadian historian, author, politician, leader of the Liberal Party of Canada and Leader of the Official Opposition in Canada. He has held prominent academic positions at Cambridge, Oxford, Harvard and Toronto. An award-winning author, he has also worked as a journalist and documentary filmmaker.
Ignatieff lived in the United Kingdom from 1978 to 2000. During this time he was a member of the faculty at both Cambridge and Oxford, and worked as a filmmaker and political commentator for the BBC. He lived in the United States from 2000 to 2005; there, he was director of Harvard's Carr Center for Human Rights Policy. In 2004 he was recruited by members of the Liberal Party of Canada to enter Canadian politics as a Liberal candidate. He moved to Canada in 2005 and took a position as a visiting professor and senior fellow of the Munk Centre for International Studies at the University of Toronto. He was then publicly mentioned as a possible Liberal candidate for the next federal election.
On November 13, 2008 he announced his candidacy for the leadership of the Liberal Party. On December 8, 2008 Dominic LeBlanc withdrew from the Liberal leadership race and on December 9, 2008, his only remaining opponent, Bob Rae, also withdrew, leaving Ignatieff as the sole candidate to replace Dion. On December 10, he was formally declared the interim leader in a caucus meeting, and his position was ratified at the party's May 2009 convention.
