The American election is much more interesting.

Harper is a douche.
Dion is a meek little twat.
Duceppe?
Layton is only there as the customer party to help out whichever other party needs legislation passed.
Green Party? Surely, you gest

I'll probably vote Liberal becuase I dislike seeing my country twitch slightly toward the right on issues like gay marriage and climate change. I hope Dion steps down after being assaulted with a Nerf gun at the PM residence in the middle of the night.

Do you mean buying gasoline from the US? I'm confused by what you're saying, we don't ship crude and then buy back crude.

Canada needs a leader with balls. Someone to say fuck shipping crude to the USA and buying it back (even though we get fucked, see the 10cent/L price hike in gas from Ike). We are the MAIN supplier of foreign oil to the USA, we shouldn't be buying our gas from them, we should be refining it ourselves, keeping the profit and protecting our consumers.

of the issues I am most concerned about:

- legalize weed -> tax it -> market it -> make millions in tax revenues from weed tourism
- energy -> stop using fossil fuels (coal, oil, etc) to create energy. move to renewable eco friendly sources, and nuclear power (reduce nuke weapon stocks and power homes). continue using gas for transport until we have a viable alternative
-

boo hoo hoo, you'll buy our gas and fucking like it

Ok, then that's not the fault of Harper. Canada needs a higher refining capacity, and to do that it'll need less resistance from environmentalists, and more private companies establishing refineries. Harper's only been in power for two years and it's a minority government, how is this all his fault? The Liberals by that measure never stood up to the Americans either. Also, your energy plan isn't workable yet. You can't snap your fingers and have a completely renewable energy grid. All parties are looking into that right now, but it takes time.

Actually, I blame the Molronney government. They sold of most of Petro Canada, which paved the way for the closure of refineries, and made it harder to setup more.

I know that it would take time to do this shit. But it should have been done a while ago.

A while ago like you mean when the Liberals were in power with an unchallanged majority? Sorry why is it you hate Harper again?

What refineries where closed?

Finally something that we, frenchies, and Anglophones can agree on, Dion is a fucking douche.

I'm sure they'd have a chance to win if Ignatieff was leading the party instead.

You forget that they were to busy throwing our money to their friends and business partners to the tune of more than 100 million I believe.

I wonder why people vote liberal too.

I don't know if this is their current plan but last I heard they wanted to toll anyone going into Quebec but they wouldn't allow people to get tolled going into Ontario.

They wanted to continue to use our military and our dollar too. The stupid thing is they lost the decision awhile back by 1 or 2 %. Quebecers are pretty fucking dumb for the main part, they're dirty greasy trailer trash hicks (God damn Gatineau)
