I really have no idea why the CP didn't think it important enough to include the authors name along with the authors opinion, but I am not a journalist and I am unfamiliar with their ways.

I think it is being somehow sneaky when the CP doesn't put the author of the articles they write.
Perhaps someone familiar with their ways could explain why they don't publish the names.
The use of "critics say", unnamed sources etc. is allows the author to insert a personal view while hiding behind someone else. It is lazy journalism and should not be tolerated at any level --- unfortunately, critics say, lazy and partisan are the hallmarks of Canadian journalism - at least according to several unnamed sources
Didn't Paul Martin quit on the job and go to the GG, once with a majority and once with a minority. Didn't Chretain quit on the job, with a majority, and go to the GG.
Liberals had no reason to quit their job but PMSH has reason to dissolve the govt. For over 2 yrs all the opposition leaders have threated an election, with the bloc and ndp actually voting to bring it down. Dion sat on his hands. If the by-elections are held will voters elect more liberals to sit on their hands. What a waste of money.
