The PPC will be VERY lucky if they get one candidate elected IMO
- Symba007

Most likely. Still a start.

yes, one for the PPC, one for the Rhino party, just pic one
- Symba007

do not take any chances, vote for both

Well, they all pretend to be nice but all of them are full of poop.

Guys, I'll side with deadpoulet on this one.

I know

Still, finally a true right wing party I can vote for in Canada. If he can bring a couple of ideas and shake the status quo we've been stuck in forever I'll be happy with it.

expect a minority liberal government with the balance of power to either the NDP or Bloc Q, that's what the polls show (if they are worth anything this time)

tired. vote for whoever is willing to abolish mondays.

hey, do you get to vote? absentee ballot or whatever?

I could have but decided to skip, too much paperwork and trouble.

Hope you didn't bet your house on that.

We're now BFFs, get used to it.

somebody nice (i don't actually know anything about canadian politics).

Neither do we

Nope, I only have one vote and I already exercised my right 10 days ago. Whoever is in power, it will be a poop show, no clear mandate, begging another party to get anything done, this will paralyze the government for months.

explain to me what it is you guys are voting for. is this like local elections or is this big time stuff or is it both?

i care very little but it will help me follow along with what's sure to be extremely enlightening conversation in this thread.

I will tell you right now who I won't vote for.

Ben Chiarot.



Mostly because he's a hockey player and not a politician but also because he's so goddamn slow.

Hope you didn't bet your house on that.

I'd actually love if it ended up something like conservatives 34%, liberals 24%, NDP 20%, PPC 14%, Greens 5%, Bloc 3%.

Think of it like voting for your house member and then the house members as a total vote on who will lead...sometimes it isn't the person with the most seats but the confidence of most parties. It's a confusing system that our leaders all lie about when convenient (cough Scheer cough)

Yup, probably another election in a year costing us millions again. What a (frank)ing waste. They should force them to stay for the whole term and actually agree on stuff.

yeah, not happening, keep focusing on Polish girls....one of them might accept to polish your flag pole.

it's the British system

federal election; you vote for your member of parliament representing your riding, ultimately the prime minister (party who can gain the confidence of the parliament to pass a budget)

338 ridings in Canada representing all parts of the country.

I just want a good balance of power and less left wing people. The only good thing on the left wing is Alex Ovechkin.

looks like they're going to make a nice comeback tonight

A situation where they might say that another party had a good idea? IMPOSSIBLE!
