**Official Canada Election thread**
 

Today's the big day folks. Canadians go to the polls to vote for the lesser asshole of their choice.

Any final words of wisdom for the masses?

I'll keep it simple. FUCK HARPER. I don't care if you vote for the Green Party or what, just don't vote for the Conservatives.

Canawho?

Vote liberal ??????

Some people just like being ass fucked and demands for more hehehehehehehe

Scary, very scary

Better to be fucked by your own country (liberals) than by the US (conservatives)

No party is ideal and none of them will be any more honest or any better at keeping campaign promises. Any of the "immoral" arguments against the liberals are simply the other parties grasping for what little they have to argue about.

Regardless of any corruption, Canada has one of the best economies in the world right now, so no reason to complain.

I'll add that I'd rather get fucked by those who's modus operandi has been brought to light, than the one that has enough ammunition and learned how to hide it from the previous government's mistakes.

The Conservatives are not an option if you're in this business.
The Conservatives are not an option if you're a woman who thinks she has the right to choose to keep a baby (healthy or otherwise)
The Conservatives are not an option if you're anything but Heterosexual.

The Bloc even if there was a possibility to become the majority government - have no intention of working for the rest of the country.
The Bloc's best interest is to work for Quebec to be sovereign - which means another 'ass fuck' when another Referendum is called *how much money do you think that costs & how much do you think they pocket*?

Better the devil you know, than the one you still have to figure out.

I agree fuck Harper he is a moron.

I'm praying that we don't get flushed down the toilet.
But I'm also not going to return to Canada until I receive the "All Clear!"

If Harper is elected I might just join my husband on his quest to renounce all citizenship status.

what I hate about these elections (as most in the past) is that most of us have to vote strategically rather than what we know is best. We vote NDP or Liberal because we fear conservatives are going to Americanize us. We vote conservative hoping to change liberal indiscretions and alleged illegal activities. We don't wish to vote Greenparty or NDP since in our minds it is a wasted vote. Politics does make strange bedfellows.

Much Music invited all that are running to come to the station and send a message to all the kids out there that can vote. The only one that showed up is Jack Layton. He is the only one that saw the potential of reaching the kids. The others said they didn't have time and didn't feel it necessary to reach the kids that way....

Funny when the majority of kids here in Canada watch on average 45-60 min of much music each day!!!!

Makes it look really bad when you don't have time for the kids that vote for you:Oh crap

Unfortunately it is the Baby-Boomers vs. Generation X...

Just think about "That 70s Show"

We used to have people like Red Foreman run the country.
(Gave a crap about his job, tried to do it well and had a low tolerance for the dumb-ass)

Now we have people like Kelso and Jackie.
(Strung out on pot and trying to win a popularity contest so everyone of their friends can think they are cool.)

And they wonder why Gen X'rs are sooooo jaded.

Layton is smart knowing that if he invests in the voters of tomorrow that they are more than likley to choose NDP for one main reason - they are prepared to listen and be where the people are. Good for NDP

I love the fearmongering. Oh no! If I vote for Harper we're going to become Americans, he's going to force women to wear bonets, stay in the kitchen and have children! Not only that but he's learned from the Liberal's crooked actions and improved on them so we're going to get fucked even harder!

Give me a fucking break. They're all crooks and they're all a joke. "The devil we know" is a party that is bankrupt. I don't want them thinking up new and exciting ways to fleece more money from the slush funds we already can't keep track of.

Paul Martin was a good finance minister but a piss poor Prime Minister. He should have cleaned out the whole lot of Jean Crouton cronies from the Liberal party.

I still say Martin and his crew are campaigning like men desperate to stay out of prison. There is panic in everything he does and says...it goes well beyond what can be considered normal political aspirations.

I think Martin and the Liberals are scared shitless that the Tories, when elected...will go searching the closets for the financial skeletons. And I strongly suspect the shredders are working overtime lately up on Parliament Hill and 24 Sussex Dr.

I guess with Martin owning CSL - it'd be only appropriate to say I'm really hoping the Liberals go down like the Edmund Fitzgerald...with Captain Martin behind the wheel.

Remember the good ol' days of the Rhinoceros Party of Canada?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhinoceros_Party_of_Canada



platform promises released by the Rhinoceros Party included:

• repealing the law of gravity,
• reducing the speed of light because it's much too fast,
• paving Thunder Bay to make a parking lot for Toronto,
• providing higher education by building taller schools,
• instituting English, French and illiteracy as Canada's three official languages,
• offering to retrain those constituents who want to become illiterate by enrolling them in a state educational institution,
• tearing down the Rocky Mountains so that Albertans could see the Pacific sunset, or moving them one metre west as a make-work project,
• legalising pot. And pans. And spatulas. And other kitchen utensils,
• building sloping roads and bicycle paths across the country so that Canadians could "coast from coast to coast",
• making all sidewalks out of rubber to prevent inebriated people from hurting themselves when they fall down
• responding to the energy crisis, reducing energy costs for transportation by moving the cities of Montréal 50km west and Toronto 50km east,
• abolishing pumping oil out of the ground as that oil is there to keep the earth moving smoothly on its axis and if you withdraw the oil, the whole thing will grind to a halt,
• abolishing the environment because it's too hard to keep clean and it takes up so much space,
• annexing the United States, which would take its place as the third territory (after the Yukon and North-West Territories) in Canada's backyard, in order to raise the mean temperature of Canada by one degree Celsius,
• replacing the Canadian Armed Forces with clones of Vladislav Tretiak,
• end crime by abolishing all laws
• making bubble gum the national currency, so that it could be inflated or deflated at will,
• breeding a mosquito that would only hatch in January so that "the little buggers will freeze to death",
• turning Montreal's Saint Catherine Street into the world's longest bowling alley,
• adopting the British system of driving on the left; this was to be gradually phased in over five years with large trucks first, then buses, eventually including small cars and bicycles last,
• as an energy-saving idea, putting larger wheels on the back of all cars so that they will always be going downhill,
• selling the Canadian Senate at an antique auction in California,
• putting the national debt on Visa,
• declaring war on Belgium because a Belgian cartoon character, Tintin, killed a rhinoceros in one of the cartoons,
• offering to call off the proposed Belgium-Canada war if Belgium delivered a case of mussels and a case of Belgian beer to Rhinoceros "Hindquarters" in Montréal (the Belgian Embassy in Ottawa did, in fact, do this),
• painting Canada's coastal sea limits so that Canadian fish would know where they were at all times,
• counting the Thousand Islands to make sure none were missing,
• running a Penny Hoar in Toronto on a safe sex platform,
• running more than one candidate per riding as an MP's salary is certainly enough to support more than one person,
• exploiting acid rain as an electrical energy source by placing dissimilar-metal electrodes in Canadian swimming pools in order to use them as batteries,
• making Canadians stronger by putting steroids in the water,
• banning lousy Canadian winters,
• moving the Vatican to Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville, Quebec to promote tourism,
• putting the West Edmonton Mall on wheels and rolling it to areas of the country suffering from economic depression,
• turning the Louis-Hippolyte Lafontaine tunnel in Montreal into a free carwash by poking holes in the ceiling,
• annexing Greenland and creating a cartel with other northern nations in order to sell icebergs to the Saudi's, the cartel would be called "Icepec",
• digging a canal from coast to coast, by hand, to reduce unemployment; and then, leveling the Rocky Mountains and using the canal to transport the material east to fill in the Great Lakes, in order to expand Canada's landmass.

The Rhino Party also declared that, should they somehow actually win an election, they would immediately dissolve and force a second election.

A British Columbia splinter group proposed running a professional dominatrix for the position of party whip, breaking with the province's colonial heritage by renaming "British Columbia" to "La La Land", moving the provincial capital, and merging with the Progressive Conservative Party so as not to split the silly vote.

Ok, now that harper won, can an american teach me the pledge of allegiance? I'll probably need to know it soon.
