Democratic Disenchantment

Canadians love to knock our political system. Recent polls say that 52% of us see it in crisis. And yet we saw record turnout in the advance polls. On election day, The Agenda asks: "What's the state of Canadian democracy?"

@povertyincanada even the most cynical citizen should be able to differentiate between the parties. There are concrete differences between the Greens, NDP, Libs, Pirates, Marxists, and the Cons. One can still cast a vote towards the party that shares the most in common with their views.

(continued) because the politicians are just clowns bold face liars , their rule is just to keep the masses of slaves working and producing by selling them idealism promises and fake ideologies , while the cabal of banksters are sucking the country dry

@povertyincanada minus the 'left' and replace it with whatever identifier you wish then. On your second statement, do you really believe the NDP are controlled by the plutocracy?

[povertyincanada]

@ppwalk05 who told you I am from the left ???? they are both two faces of the same medal they are both controlled bought and paid for.....

[ppwalk05]

@povertyincanada yes because anyone who voted conservative is an idiot. One thing the left never got the hang of, is the fact that in a free and fair election people may actual vote for those that don’t share the left’s views.

@HannySocks that is their choice, I have more conservative minded friends who didn't vote in this election than any other in the last 15 years. At the end of the day not voting is a choice some people make. Not everyone pays attention to politics, if everyone voted without being informed it would likely be whoever put up the most signs being the winner and that is no better than what you have now. If you are displeased with the election, educate and inform people as to the error of their ways

screw any idiot who voted conservative ...you idiots are going to regret it big time ....
