It's good to see discussion on the parties and it looks like we have people expressing their concerns both in public and the voters box. I have spent many years watching the 4 year wonders screwing up the 20 year plans of the Navy, which forces the equipement well past the service life. These same wonders have no issues with deploying the same equipement and personal to what ever hotspot they feel is necessary. So it is important to choose wisely and vote, as that is the only way you have the right to crap on them after the election.

Give this a try. It might suprise you.

I'm still trying to figure out how the Liberials plan to run the country when they are looking to be an absentee governement at their current rate.

Well apparently that "debate" turned out exactly how I had expecting it, 2 hours of harping on Harper.

For some reason they didn't want to watch it at the bar, but we did watch 4 goof balls talk about the playoffs on TSN/Sportsnet. Good thing there was no volume :)

I didn't find the debate all that interesting this time around. Jack Layton had a couple funny lines towards Harper and Ignatieff but that was about it.

Too funny, the fiberals and the con's were so busy attacking each other, the NDP has snuck up on them and now they both have to attack the NDP. :roll: Which will probably put MORE support behind the NDP :shock:

Monday folks, vote early and vote often :wink:

Yay, wikileaks to the rescue :P
http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/5763/125
In summary: We have confirmation that the last Canadian DMCA bill was put on the back burner by public protest, which pissed off the Americans (and the Conservaties lie^H^H pandered a bunch of times). And Michael Geist has a bunch of acolytes :P

Too bad this didn't come out a month ago. Hopefully the other parties get to run with it.

remember that the first attempt at this came from Paul Martin's liberals in 2006 (i think? maybe 2004 my memory's not that great). So the liberals would support it if it could be snuck through without us having time to react to it. This is why I like the NDP in its current position; they get to see what is coming through that would be extremely socially unpopular and let us know about it so we have time and a voice to protest with.

I'd say that hopefully the NS vote gets mixed-up this time around but it's pretty mixed up to begin with haha.

If you're in the St Margaret's Bay (Spelling?) / South Shore area make sure to vote NDP. The Conservatives won by the slimmest margin of any riding in Canada in 2008 against the NDP opposition and as well that NDP opposition is my uncle. :) Really great guy.

NDP for me.

Peter Stoffer is the man.

Only guy with the nuts to come door to door in the rain. The others... Well I just don't know them well enough because I never met them..

I'd vote PPCA but Green is as close as it gets here. It's a libreal riding (Halifax West) which is just as good as "not Conservative" IMO.
