Conservatives win election in Canada

[Deadfire]

We had a NDP goverment.... for 3 months... and for all the right reasons they were thrown out. NDP don't work in at the Federal Goverment level. to much money going to things that don't need it and some that do. the bottom line being they lost us canadians money with almost nothing to show for it. Look at the province of Manitoba which has a NDP goverment, It is getting us nowhere and I as most that live here see nothing of our tax dollars. I will not vote for NDP for the same reason as many canadians.... they had their chance, and blew it. Letting them back in will do nothing but show us again why they got booted out in the first place. As for the MariJuana Party, they are just like the green party to me....not worth my vote.

And that is why we are stuck now either between the Liberals who have fucked up our country for the last 10 years or the conservatives who want to take away all the things that make us Canadian. What we need now isn't a hardcore right wing government now more than ever with all the problems in the world we need people in power who want to find peaceful solutions and will help those in our country who need it which isn't the wealthy business man but those who don't even have a home to go or those just on the verge of being in poverty.

You point out my friend of the last 10 years, but what have these other partys proven in those same years? Why is it we kept them there that long?. It's because they seem like they couldn't take on governing our country. We voted this time for a different party not because we needed this "hardcore right-wing" you speak of it's because we felt we needed to try something else, most didn't care who are what is was. We didn't want to vote Grit because of that and we didn't want the NDP because of what i stated above. The other partys besides the Cons are not in the same league as those parties we know of. Canadians are naturally stubborn to accept any major change of pace. that why the cons didn't do as well as most thought but also why those other parties didn't get the time of day. We can't trust them to do anything better then the other 3. So why not vote for a known party then one that is lesser known when the result will be the same? You also state the problems of the world..... what of these problems effect us? voting in a party we have no real idea about will not do anything for us in world affairs because they are to busy still trying to make our own goverment work for them. It's not a good idea is what I'm trying to say.

But that's why there are so many problems with Canada is because we have had no real change look back and all of our Prime Ministers aside from the one have been either Liberal or Conservative and maybe in the beginning thats what we needed all I'm saying is that maybe now we should be looking to something different to try and make our country better for the average person rather than the rich minority.

[Deadfire]

I do argee with your statement but remember that where the most seats in Canada are. That is exactly where that minority is....it's not fair to the rest of the country very much so for the western provinces, but electing a new party will not change that fact. Our goverment is more worried about where they got thier seats from's point-of -view. This is a mostly in Ontario and Quebec

[Dug88]

Ya I know thats why there needs to be some kind of change there are western provinces that should have some influence but I mean here in B.C. the election is usually over before the polls here are even closed. Thats why we need some kind of big change not just in government but the whole system of government that we have.
