Have you not already seen rock bottom in Sask when the NDP ruled? We know what will be coming if Mulcair gets in. Bend over and pass the vaseline....

That was a long time ago Ken. I know that socialism doesn't work. You know that socialism doesn't work. But it seems the vast majority of the voters don't. Or maybe people just don't care. I think I am part of that category.
Society is to far left to come back in my opinion. There needs to be some tough descions made if they expect to survive, but no one has the balls to make them, because most people are to soft, or the whole system will come to a grinding halt. The world economy is driven by people spending money they don't have on **** they don't need, that doesn't ****ing last anyway. The hardship that is headed our way is going to make the '30s look like paradise. Regardless of who's behind the wheel of the bus, things are not going to get better.

All three are useless, we're fawked. I have always voted Conservative but am considering a vote for the Liberals. Justin is useless but my hope is that he will be a figurehead and the rest of the Lib government still has a head on its shoulders. Harper is crooked as hell and while he led us through 2008 very well the economy has been in shambles since and has not recovered at a rate equivalent to our peers. Too many backroom deals with cronies and foreign interests, too much deregulation of major resources allowing crooked corporations to run wild. He is only in it for himself, his backers and the 1 percenters now and the election strategy of dragging it out to spend spend spend the tax payers money is just the latest indication of this.

Hells freezing over before the wonderkid gets my vote. I have to much pride in my country to sit and watch him embarrass us on the world stage. He has zero qualifications to be a Prime Minister. Even his own party is realizing the mistake they made appointing him there leader.I see a change if the Liberals do poorly in the federal election.

I'm not liberal, but the party itself lost all my respect when they chose him over that astronaut fella, Marc whatever. That just help prove my point though, in how ****ed society really is.

What the vast majority of us should do, is spoil the ballot. Send a message that we want/need true change.

I just dont see a NDP victory and definatly not Liberal either so it pretty much leaves us with Harper. I dont think he has done bad for Canada but needs to clean up all the Bullchit golden handshakes kickbacks etc.. In my opinion i dont see harper winning majority in wich we as the people will be in for some more headaches but he is all we got here that is half good for us just saying.

kind of like Malroney days with trips to NYC to get bags of money from German agent for Airbus contracts. Oh wait then we have the money paid by Harper's chief of staff to Duffey. Hmmmmm just proves my point a bunch of self serving addicts

too lazy to look at more facts but Harper is far from smelling like a bed of roses.

That may be, but with any- the good has been, for the most part, out weighed the bad with Mr. Harper. We are nearing the balance point though.
It's pretty sad really.

Until things gt worse though, and they will, people are going to continue to be 'too lazy' to look things up or care.

Just looking at the obvious.... The lesser of the three evils. Under the current regime, Canada is doing okay, as a country, considering oil crash etc..... I can't vote for mulcair, a lawyer worth millions, who has remortgaged his house 12 times and owes millions in back taxes that he refuses to pay. Or Trudeau who has inherited family millions and is a teacher and doesn't understand economics at all. Then we have Harper with imperfections, but he's from Calgary with a "normal" home(except 23 Sussex ) who started out in the mailroom, and put himself through school and is an economist....

People keep bringing up what Harper has done to the economy....... Let's take a step back here. Look at the world economy and reassess that thinking..... Since he has been in power our neighbors to the south are in an all out economic crisis. There is no way possible to stop that from effecting our economy Weather it be Harper or any one else in power that is going to effect our economy. But at least we are still afloat for the most part. No the mans not perfect but the ndp's model is historically proven to not work. It has brought many provincial economies to their knees and we want to risk that with our federal government when the world economy is in disarray.

In the case of the liberals yA know what I would have considered giving them a chance. But for those saying "he is just the leader and still has the party calling the shots" remember that party voted him in as leader....... Just sayin
