How does one vote down HARD someone?     

Usually every mayoral election will have a few nutbars and usually they are ignored and people simply vote for the sane candidates.  

Lose by a lot...make a statement. Vote for progressives, not regressives. 

A little background on the loonies running in the municipal elections:

Seems like Pembina Trails SD has more than their fair share of nutter candidates for some reason, including 2 in the same ward.

That **** got up here real quick though some might say that they have been around for a long time an recent events in the past year have let them escape and find an audience

 

Most of the trustees out here in the rural areas will be acclaimed - very few people running.

Well, no emails saying 'siiiiike' today so I guess we have avoided a strike, at least for now.

I read that Randy Bachman loads up on KUB rye whenever he's in Wpg for any reason, because you just can't get anything like it anywhere else...especially in BC, where he's at.

There rye was fantastic grew up on the stuff but lately it seems to have changed, maybe it's just me, but what really got me was their cinnamon buns iced perfectly and with no raisins.

I detest raisins - we can really be friends now.
