| The outcome of the Federal Election (the REAL one, not the POF one) Posted: 1/13/2006 11:31:14 AM | I think the POFer was referring to the ontario government..remember the RAE years?
i think our whole political landscape has changed..when organized labour starts supporting the liberals ..you know that the NDP also has to change its tune.
As i said...i dont want the NDP to be the Government...just have a minority which has an impact on the goverment social programs for families!
I love what Jack said in the debate to Harper... it doesnt take people to be part of the government to instrument change in the government. The NDP has proven that we can all have some effect in the political system regardless of majority or minority ruling. | |

| The outcome of the Federal Election (the REAL one, not the POF one) Posted: 1/13/2006 11:41:15 AM | I'm cynical in general, but I specialise in political distrust...I grew up during the Bob Rae years, the only thing that guy did for me was get me a few days off school once in a while with the 'Bob Rae days' stuff.
I'm too young to remember, what was the deal with those? | |

| The outcome of the Federal Election (the REAL one, not the POF one) Posted: 1/13/2006 11:41:43 AM | "Why I will vote Liberal"
* Because I believe in the extent to which the Official Languages Act is carried out and enforced; that every public servant even in the most remote part of B.C. should be fluent in the French language, but that government business in Quebec should be in unilingual French.
* Because I believe that only lawyers from the province of Quebec are qualified to be Prime Minister of Canada.
* Because I believe that the federal government should be completely controlled by the province of Quebec.
* Because I believe that all criminals are just poor misunderstood victims of society and can all be easily rehabilitated in a very short period of time; and that only they have "rights"; not the victims of their crimes.
* Because I believe that hardened criminals like Karla Homolka should be pampered by living in a "cottage" with her own key and be allowed to have pajama parties and go out on shopping trips; and that killers in prison "resorts" on the Pacific coast should eat filet mignon, have barbecues, go whale watching and have their own golf course, while our senior citizens have to eat left over Kraft Dinner.
* Because I believe that mass murderers under that age of 18 should be protected by the Young Offenders Act and the rest of us law-abiding citizens do not have the right to know who they are.
* Because I believe that it is fair that the province of Quebec is the sole province allowed to be in charge of its immigration policy; that they receive 5 times the amount of federal immigration money than does Ontario, even though Ontario has to teach those people how to speak English whereas Quebec only allows immigrants to enter who already know the French language.
* Because I believe that we do not have a right to own land in Canada, as it is under Liberal law.
* Because I believe it is only fair that Liberals steal as much tax money as they can from us; through every conceivable means from the HRDC boondoggle to the 2 billion dollar gun registry that does not work.
* Because I believe that if my family is the victim of a home invasion I should not have the right to protect them in our own home.
* Because I believe in huge government bureaucracy and extremely high taxes, as I believe that the government knows how to spend my money better than I do.
* Because Jack Layton is not a lawyer from Quebec so he is not qualified to be prime minister; besides, he smiles too much.
* Because Stephen Harper is not a lawyer from Quebec and he and the Conservative Party of Canada have a hidden agenda and they are very scary people.
* Because I believe everything that the Liberal controlled media tells me, especially the CBC.
* Because I believe that no one should ever be held responsible or accountable for their own actions in today's society. It is always someone else's fault.
* Because I have the IQ of a doorknob and am easily sucked in by Liberal scare tactics and propaganda; and am easily bought off with my own tax money.

Well and good to bash willy-nilly without standing up for what you believe in...
Heck, you must be learning from the Conservatives oh-so-classy smear campaign tactics...
