@lorads200 Nice try. Best bet against a cold con like Harper works for a majority of Canadians.

What a role model for Canadian Children. Caught with his pants down in a brothel he told police while being naked on a bed he had no idea he was in a whore house.

Poor Olivia. Vote for anyone but Jack Layton

I cannot see myself voting NDP since I do not agree with many of their policy initiatives, however, of all the leaders, Jack is leaps and bounds more personable, friendly, approachable and understanding than the others. Harper is cold and aloof, Iggy is some stranger from Harvard (and I usually vote Liberal saying that) and Duccy is obsessed with breaking apart our beautiful country. Jack, if you became Liberal leader - this country would be yours to lead.

@bub4444 - Your hatred of Americans doesn't show your 'Canadian identity' or 'distinctiveness', it just reveals you to be a resentful, small-minded, left-wing bigot.

@bub4444 - Much of Canada's peace and prosperity are due to its position and shared history with the United States. Those of you on the left would prefer Cuba and other left-wing dictatorships, but I'll take the Americans as neighbours and allies any day. Your irrational bigotry toward them is ridiculous. I thought those of you on the left were supposed to stop hating Americans when they elected the marxist doofus...

@RicPhlare I'm sure you'd rather Canada became a star on the American flag eh? Vote for the American Conservatives or the scumbag Liberals then.

@sweiland75 - With dependence comes loss of freedom. Freedom is inversely proportional to the power of government. History tells us that. Nobody wants more tax revenue and control than people like Layton. Well, maybe Stalin.

@sweiland75 - Check out rising electricity prices in Ontario, where a nanny-state leftist moron premier is using energy subsidies to bankrupt the province and further drive out the few remaining industries. It doesn't stop with energy policy - socialism destroys free market business and competition and makes government the be-all and end-all to everything. What's the point working when the government takes even more than they do now? Get in the welfare line and get the free shit.

@sweiland75 - Here he complains of subsidies, but he would just subsidize what he wants. His subsidies would be larger and the costs of transportation would skyrocket. Energy prices would increase to the point that the average person would be taken off the road. Maybe not a problem in cities, but not everybody lives in the fucking GTA. Without private transportation as competition, the costs of mass transit wouldn't be a bargain either.

@sweiland75 - Like all socialists, he would control people through the ever-increasing powers of government. Socialists control the economy through punitive taxation. Government regulation and punitive taxation drives private business to uncompetitiveness and extinction. Socialism punishes hard work and success, while laziness and dependence is rewarded. This is what is happening now, but socialists would accelerate the process.
