I seriously think I might break my long non-voting streak on this one.

It has been ages. Last time I voted in anything, it was for the party led by Ed Broadbent. Canadians will have some idea how long ago that was. Except our younger Canadians who might very well say, "Who the fuck?"

But something has touched a nerve this time.
 
The more people that vote, the more likely we will not see a Conservative majority. It is widely known that the PC party is not even going for any new voters, only trying to secure their voter base. If we get another conservative majority we are fucked...

I have not missed a federal vote in many years, even though the backwards fucktards that live in my riding continually re-elect an MP that has a muzzle order on her by Harper. Even the soldiers and veterans that the conservatives have let down seem to vote for this bitch.

Cheryl Gallant.

Well good news for you I guess, MrQ. I am on your side (though not for reasons that overlap your rationale there.)

Memories of jury duty.

That could change though. I am open minded and aware of vast gray areas. Becoming more informed could lead anywhere.

I'm sure every partisan - seeing the world in their own black and white terms - would think that automatically means I will end up on their side - but most will be wrong.
 
Ed Broadbent is still alive, I'll have you know.

Here he is this year with current dude Mulcair. Ed looks pretty damn good for 79 if you ask me.

Seems like he could either make a comeback to politics or maybe go for a Canadian boxing title.

What ever happened with that anyway? Razor Ruddock's comeback title shot?

If anyone followed up on that, I missed it.


Here is some news. Oh dear. :facepalm:
