Well played Nichols !

Yikes,

That looked to easy

Very distanced

Most parties attempt to buy votes in one way or another but this one is really poorly thought out. It makes them appear to be poorly prepared for an election we all knew was coming.

True but it IS unethical.

And here's the exact words of the Ethics Commissioner: The authority of the prime minister and his office was used to circumvent, undermine and ultimately attempt to discredit the decision of the director of public prosecutions as well as the authority of Ms. Wilson‑Raybould as the Crown’s chief law officer,” he found.

Many years ago, probably in the 70s, I was utterly disgusted by the slate of candidates. So I made a little box, neatly printed my name and voted for myself. And yes, I know that's a spoiled ballot but in a small community where everyone knows everyone I thought it might give someone a laugh.

This is a good Q+A with 3 high level American Doctors about how they personally deal with the Delta variant . https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/aug/17/vaccines-delta-covid-coronavirus-safety-questions

1st of all I never said he was a racist. I said you would have roasted Harper if it was him in blackface. Next, there has never been evidence ,or as far as I know a serious suggestion that Harper ever lined his pockets. Ever. You don't have to like his politics but you shouldn't make crap up. He took his role seriously. There is a difference between appointing people you know and what Trudeau did in the We scandal. The organization he was going to put in charge of close to a billion dollars of our money is run by 2 brother's who have made themselves rich by their " charity " It is organised so they cannot be held personally accountable . The minute they were being investigated they shutdown operations in Canada.This is an organization that had handed over close to 300,000 to his family. The only thing close to this is Chretien and the Ad scam or Mulroney after he left office and his paper bag of money and they don't match it. Saying " Oh they are all crooked " is BS As is saying" he is better than Trump" Who the hell isn't? It's making excuses for a guy who has no right to stay in office. And if it's because he is stupid , he should not be the PM. He fired our Attorney General just for investigating a company ( a company known for underhanded dealings) who were in his riding or close to it. That's her job and in Canada the AG is the one position that is not supposed to be interfered with by the sitting government. She is supposed to be independent.As I said I have no understanding of how anyone could vote for him.

Il give you the" hate " term. Dispise, disgust and embarrassed would be better. There's not alot of people I " hate ". I disagree on them being minor. Are you telling me that if multiple films of Harper wearing blackface came out you wouldn't be outraged. Or if he tried to give family friends/ business associates control of a 900 million government program you would call it minor ? Or taken a free 80,000 dollar holiday from a lobbyist you wouldnt be disgusted? And I could go on.

I fiercely hate Trudeau and have voted Liberal in the past and dont rule out voting Liberal in the future. My son in law despises Trudeau and voted for him when he was 1ST elected PM. I know many others. Your "reality " is plain wrong. I actually have no understanding how people can ignore the endless scandals and issues and put an X by his name.

Agreed. The same movement popped up in the late 70s and early 80s and garnered a few protest votes then disappeared.

My vote is entirely fluid in most elections. In this election there is no way on God's green earth I can or will vote for Trudeau. I also won't vote for any party ( PC ) that actually still denies global warming. That leaves me Mr. Singh and I have no problem with that. It would suit me fine if the Liberals just squeak through with a tiny minority leaving the NDP as a very influential power.

Its an interesting election . Its not really about people switching their votes from liberal to conservative or vise versa . It's more about how many votes the Bloc and NDP can bleed off or can't. And how many middle of the pack voters just don't come out to vote. It's not like either the Liberals or Conservatives have been inspirational.

I don't think this is the slam dunk that some think it is. Barring a disaster they will be back but : Reasons the Libs will win a minority 1- Trudeau himself isn't that popular. He lost the popular vote to a weasel of a PC leader last election The Jody Wilson-Raybold fiasco, We scandal, being found unethical 2x, and his personal selection of our previous Gov. General leave a stink on him that wears on his personal likeability. 2- 1st Nation issues and problems have been at the forefront of the non-covid news.The Libs have been quite ineffectual on making any headway on the many issues they face. 3- Jagmeet Singh has made headway in increasjng his personal appeal to Canadians. 4-The Bloc haven't shot themselves in the foot 5 - The environment is finally becoming more of a general issue and I'm not sure that they are viewed as very progressive on it. ( not sure on that one) Reasons they could get a majority : 1- A fractured PC party with a leader who has not been able to put it back togeather. That's the biggest factor in this election. OToole's lack of success at dragging them into this century pretty much eliminates them from power. 2- Singh is the most popular party leader but So many people just are to hesitant to actually vote NDP and I still don't know if enough of Canada is ready to vote for a Sikh leader to make a breakthrough. But this is no slam dunk for the liberals.

He's had all the chances in the world to pass whatever he wants. The NDP would have supported any progressive change he wanted to. He is all talk, no action.
