MONTREAL — A U.S. political operator fresh from electoral success south of the border had some advice Wednesday for hundreds of Liberals readying to elect a new leader and hoping to reclaim power in Ottawa.

Stick to your values and use all means to reach out to voters everywhere all of the time, former U.S. presidential hopeful Howard Dean said.

Dean was the featured speaker at the opening night show of a convention that marks the last lap of a party leadership race deemed too close to call in its closing days.

As chairman of the Democratic National Committee, Dean is widely credited with helping orchestrate the Democrats’ majority takeover of both the Senate and House of Representatives in the mid-term elections earlier this month.
