Strategic voting in Canada

[cycimian]

Steven Lewis called it was it is. Same coin heads they win tails we loose. Canada has lost its identity with the Amhacks from south of the border many years ago. Globaists got their way first with NAFTA back in the 80z. Did things get better as to this robbery in Tory crap? And Liberals although they have a higher social heart the liberals have been comprimized as well. I miss Canada very much and seeing how the Americans have stolen our pride by a cabol of Zionists whos only loyal 2 themselves.

[DIGIBOYTV]

Liberals -SPP no public input.

Conservatives-neocon.

Canada must give the NDP a shot at saving Canada for our kids.

[ODDMANtheone]

The Bloc = the reason the right of center gets elected in Canada. These guys are avoiding the real issue.

Stop the Bloc....make them a provincial party at best.

[GreenpartyCanadaSupp]

they are. The provincial Parti Quebecois.

It just that quebec votres want a sepratist sovrentist party in the house of commons. Canada needs a electorial refrorm (MMP). the number of seats earned will reflect the percentage of votes each party earned.

Canada should send Albertans to Texas, they'll fit in better there. No matter, once the price of gas drops even more you'll join the recession and Ontario will have to prop up our economy once again.

Yes and no, only two parties ever win the Prime Minister seat, but there are two other (well, recently now 3 other) parties with seats in the federal office, and more seats on local offices as well. NDP is probably the most influence third party in English Canada.

[sirellyn]

I would like to vote for someone fiscally conservative who isn't a neocon. Unfortunately that seems to eliminate all the parties running this election. I'm pretty sick of "strategically" voting as well, as that is the key way to start voting for the lesser of two evils. And every time we do that we still only end up with evil.

[TiradeFaction]

I agree with you on the "strategic" voting, it only opens the door to letting the system degrade to the point to where it is "the lesser of two evils". Just look below to the United States, trust me, it's not a favorable situation.

[AldenMarquette]

Barry Kay is the man.

[danthemango]

AMEN. I'm voting NDP, but not because I am an NDP supporter, I'm a libral, but this election the NDP is the only one I almost agree

[Andrei23ru]

me too, go Layton.

[longhairred]

The idea of a Harper majority government just totally fills me with despair.

[Knightshield]

we need to stop a Conservative majority at any cost

[unab84]

Quebec ruleZ!!!!

[blackiron60]

The left-wing needs to present a united front - it's the only way it has prevailed historically around the world.

[JoeNietzsche]

I'm an NDP supporter (Libby's a champ) and will remain one but I have to say, Liz May kicked some serious, serious ass in the english debate. She was the only one to even mention the IMF and the influence of what is known around the world as Neo-Liberal (known in the US as Neocon) agenda. Very important stuff. Now, if there were only a way to convince the Greens and the NDP to put aside their differences...

[JoeNietzsche]

Actually, what would be great is a partnership between the Greens, NDP and the Bloc. That would be awesome. It would also be far more democratic than the absurdity that is the conservative party forming government.

[TiradeFaction]

Do you think the Greens will win any seats?

[JoeNietzsche]

No clue. I don't know enough about the distribution of their support.

[danthemango]

I thought they already won 1

[berrypievision]

Not necessarily, the one green parliament member simply switched his affiliation to the Greens. That doesn't matter anymore though, since parliament was dissolved. I was asking if he thought the greens would win any seats this coming election. I hope they do.

TRUTH!! SHARE!!

[TiradeFaction]

I feel inclined to warn canadian voters to not go too far down the path of "strategic voting" or aka "voting for this shitty party because I hate the shittier one" because that could very well lead to a two party duopoly. I think the main problem with the conservative party issue is it doesn't have a right wing counterpart to split up the vote like the liberal party does with the NDP. The more the power is split between various parties, the better I say.

[elogieux]

Vivre le Bloc Québecois!!

[shas1814]

ABC = NDP

I like that.

Lib and Con are heads and tails of the same coin.

We need genuine change and immediate change!

[mounir1426]

for me ABC=NPD

[Renegen1]

Good stuff, hope Harper doesn't get anything close to a majority or a minority. It's too bad people are going away from the Liberals, Dion has good principles and a good plan.

[TVParkdale]

Harper is slipping. With this USA financial crisis many don't trust him with a recession/depression.

[lisalouise]

Great!! Thank you for this

[slantythecamel]

ABC

Anything But Conservative
