Election's 'a comin'
Judging from what I just read on yahoo.ca
Chretien, at least, will get what he wants for Christmas (Paul Martin on a stick).

Re: Election's 'a comin'
Unfortunately I agree with you. I wish the Liberals would get kicked out. They have had more than a good run at screwing things up - and they have succeeded. Let someone else have a chance at screwing things up for a change.
I think we will spend millions and end up with another Liberal government.
Lord knows why all those people in Ontario vote for him, but I guess he is in the process of buying everyone's vote at the moment.

Thus the Liberals are the least bad.

Some former Liberal ridings (including my own) in "Canadian" parts of Ontario switched to the Conservatives last time. But the way it works is if a riding is approximately 20% "visible minority" the Tories can't win unless they virtually sweep the white vote. It's the main reason why the Liberals are trying to bring in more immigrants.
Unfortunately what we currently have is NOT the true Conservative Party. It is a bastardization of the Reform/Alliance/Conservative Parties. Run by and large by the religious right. A truly scary thought.

Re: Election's 'a comin'
Some people on this site are too stupid too see that.
I'm not sure about the ethnic vote though. Just remember last time when it comes to protesting about gay marriage, most of them were immigrants.
When it comes to "social conservatives", alot of immigrants are in that camp.
I was born in Vietnam, came to Canada in 1989, and I dispise the liberal with a passion.
And yeah, I'm voting for Harper because I use my brain and won't let others do the thinking for me, unlike some of you here.

But they are not very tolerant of the gay community, and they don't favour abortion very much either.
But they would like to go to war with George W. :scared:

From what I've seen of him, I think Jim Prentice (Conservative MP for Calgary Centre North) is a decent bloke. But he comes from the Joe Clark Conservatives.
