2. Whatever happened to Canada?

I always thought you guys were far more progressive and environmentally conscious than down here in Jesus-freak/rape the planet murika.

[HeresyLives]

4. Stephen Harper and the Neo-Cons

happened. Smallest minority in our history, but technically PM. He's currently busy wrecking the country.

[HEyHEY]

6. You can't blame him for this

I hate the fucker too, but this is all three parties.

9. No, it was Harper and Layton

Neither Duceppe nor Dion did so.

Layton is defending himself right now.

Harper weaseled earlier.

12. But, the others haven't gone to bat for them

I, Frankly, Hope the networks say, "Fuck you don't come to the debate then." We cannot have them bullying the democratic process like this. They don't have the sack to actually NOT show up and allow the Libs, Greens, and Bloc free reign to fuck them up.

5. We still are :)

But we get pissed up here too sometimes.

8. This is all politics, not anything else

3. You a Green Party supporter?

I've always been NDP, but I'm considering voting Green this year.

[HEyHEY]

7. No, but I believe in the right for them to be in the debates.

I'll be voting for Hedy Fry this time... on account of the world's biggest moron, Lorne Mayencourt is trying to oust her.

13. Hedy "crosses burning in Prince George" Fry?

Wow, you must be desperate.

10. Happens here too :^( There seems to be little room for democracy in our democracies these days

11. STUPID. Geez, the green party may have actually made the debate worth listening too.

Most of the Canadian debates are mostly unwatcheable....my blood pressure increases with all the pandering, meaningless "debate", and bullshit arguments.

I already know who I'm voting for anyways...I don't need to watch the debate to see Stephen "smirking condescending asshole" Harper, Stephane "It's hard to make priorities" Dion, Jack "compensating alpha male" Layton, and Giles "I'm just here to tear apart Canada" Duceppe make fools of themselves.
