Its the Liberals that hold quebec on a provincial scale. And it appears thaat they are again going to have a landslide victory.

Or some crap like that.

Basically, whatever party you vote for, you know the guy on the ballot more or less has the same views as portrayed by the party leader.

You must also take into account though the individual, because no matter what side of the political spectrum you happen to sit on, having a party full of political hacks who basically just spout whatever the party leader tells them is Bad for all involved. Wouldn't you agree?

Hence why people shouldn't focus so much on party and focus a bit more on who it is that's representing them.

Our system is built on representatives, and when people ignore who their representatives are, their representatives ignore what the people want them to do.

Ideally, yeah, everyone would know all the people running in their ridding, what they stand for, how trust worthy they are, and whether or not his or her daughter is cute; but, it's already hard enough for people to make an educated vote based on parties (e.g. watching the american VP debate instead of Canadian leadership debate).

Holy fuck do I ever love Kraft Singles. I might eat this whole damn package.

[ebbomega]

Santa Barbara Market havarti > kraft singles any day.

cheaper too!

[tiedye]

Not the same.

[tiedye]

I love good cheese, but Kraft Singles are Kraft Singles.

[Some dude]

Everyone knows that all other processed cheese products are second to cheese whiz.

Yet I can't help but feel there's joke here that Im not in on.

[tiedye]

No joke, really.

But Cheeze Whiz is fucking bollocks.

[cubed]

You gotta have the singles for grilled cheese sammiches.

Higher quality cheeses are reserved for eating on their own or other sandwiches.

[Courtney]

Jack and Gilles came off the hill
To try and walk on water.
Dion came 'round carting a crown,
And Gilles rolled around in laughter.

Harpo got hot and in a circle did trot
Where he left his brain is a mystery;
He called Joe Clark who'd made his own mark
With the shortest term in history.

Ms. May rolled in without a win
Dreaming of a seat in the chamber.
Home comes Jean to squish the scheme
And prorogue away the danger.

Found this on the CBC News Site...

did anyone catch his debate with dion? I heard the ending clips last night and sounds like Harpers trying to get another election a gwaaaan.

It was really funny too because Harper tried to form a colaition with the BLOQ back when the libs were in power and now hes crying foul because the BLOQ are part of the colation with the NDP and libs.

SURE. I'LL GO ALONG WITH THATo

[decypher]

I can't wait for Harper to leave. Or maybe he'll prorogue? This story is actually getting time on international spots too. We are barely ever mentioned.

[dj_soo]

if i were the conservative party, I'd see what I could do to try to dump harper and then go from there - might stave off an election that no one wants and get the coalition to back off from trying to take over without an election that few people want either.

[Vitamin-X]

My greatest concern with this Coalition is just how far down on bended knee will they go to please (and maintain the support) of the separatists.

If you thought Quebec got special treatment before- lookout!

[dj_soo]

my fear is that the coalition will royally fuck the dog on the government which will result in a conservative minority 2 years from now.
