Prime Minister Stephen Harper has announced that three
federal byelections will be held on Nov. 26.
   
The votes will be held in the ridings of Victoria, Calgary-Centre
and the Ontario riding of Durham.
   
The ridings became vacant when members resigned.
   
Former cabinet minister Bev Oda quit following controversy over
her expenses, including an infamous $16 glass of orange juice,
leaving the Durham riding vacant.
   
New Democrat Denise Savoie resigned her Victoria seat for health
reasons.
   
Conservative Lee Richardson left in Calgary-Centre to work for
Alberta Premier Alison Redford.
