Canadian Federal Election 2011 (Part 2) -Political Parties

Hi you go talent thank for sharing ;-)

[quack420]

hopefully this video encourages you to do more research since this summary is so simplistic it actually misrepresents what each party wants....

go to cbc.ca and take a fun quiz to find out where you stand on the "political compass" for a somewhat more comprehensive idea of which party you most agree with...

Great!!! Thanks for the summary

You make voting sexy ;)

[hdzsound]

Partie Quebecois FTW

@hdzsound F*** you. The BQ is destroying Canada, and not just by separating. They effectively nullify the Quebec vote by not allowing the people of Quebec to elect anyone from the other major parties, allowing them to have a say in electing the party that forms government. This makes the people of Quebec angry towards English Canada. The rest of Canada sees the Bloc as the wedge that prevents a majority government(and they are). Quebec votes for BQ because they are divided from English Canada.

[hdzsound]

@originalUberrape

yeah, BLOC Quebecois FTW. (LOL)

I see nothing wrong with minority governments,

This prevent the prime mister party, from going to deep into corruption, and lies.

And the government makes budget to make everyone happy.

[originalUberrape]

@hdzsound Minority governments cannot get anything done. Then an election is called every 2 years... costing double what it should. The overwelming number of campaign ads alienates people causing them not to vote. I disagree that minorities prevent corruption. Do you think it is chance that the only government found in contempt of parliament in Canadian history was a minority? Plus most times a Minority government is defeated, it is in a quarrel over the budget.

[hdzsound]

@originalUberrape

Also, "Contempt of Parliament", this is why minority government is good. Without it, Conservator would had just roll till the end of their 4 years, by doing things most Canadian voted(theoretically) against.

[originalUberrape]

@hdzsound The Contempt of Parliament was caused by the Conservatives not giving the other parties the information they need to make a proper vote(so that they don't get voted against). I would think that this is caused by the minority government. Plus if the oppositon causes an election(especially after 4 elections in 7 years) they are actually less likely to take down the conservatives. I would take 4 years of corrupt government over 4 years of corrupt government with a pointless election.

[originalUberrape]

@hdzsound Also sorry about the FU. I did not realize you were sarcastic

[hdzsound]

@originalUberrape

I was more or less sarcastic.

I watched the English debate yesterday, and about 1/3 of there replicas was starting with "It is a lie", "This is completely false" and such crap. Nothing really interesting. Looking forward for the french debate tonight (gonna be shit, too =) )

A vote for the NPD or Green Party is the same as for BQ??.They will probably never get the power, too!



[originalUberrape]

@hdzsound Just because the NDP and Greens are incapable of earning enough votes to form government at the present time, at least they are trying. The BQ does not even try(they don't run in enough seats). For the record, if the BQ ran outside of Quebec i would be tempted to vote for them.

[hdzsound]

@originalUberrape

To get rid of Quebec??

I live in Quebec, I think I will vote for the BQ (for the first time), But I am against separation. All parties just sucks now.

[originalUberrape]

@hdzsound I Agree All parties do suck right now. I would mostly vote for the BQ (if they were a national party with national interests) because of how much the other parties suck. Mostly the Tories and Grits, The NDP i would not vote for because they have been screwing manitoba for years. I don't support quebec separating however canada would be better off if quebec were a separate country.

you talk soooo fast its sooo awesome!! = D

can't wait to see more!! :3

[obtree]

Hey Rree! Just found your channel, and I like it. I guess this will be your first election that you are old enough to vote in, eh? Do you mind if I ask which way you plan to cast your vote?

[BreezyRree]

@obtree Hey! I'm still up in the air about who id vote for. The campaigns have barley just begun .. there's so much that can happen. I think I'm going to wait to make a more informed decision. Any thoughts yourself? :)

[obtree]

@BreezyRree Well, I'm a libertarian, so I don't really fit onto your left right scale haha (maybe you should make a video about that ;D). I tend to vote for the least of 4 evils, or I try to anyway.

So in the spirit of damage control, I'm going to vote for the conservatives. Harper is a bully, and a bit of a weasel, but he and his party seem to have a better understanding of economics.

[butfunny]

Well said, vote indeed!
