Oh noes Harper is evil Harper is evil! /sarcasm

Cant we all just... Get abong? :-D

I believe this fella is a spam bot, I've seen posts like this on other websites. Its talking about Georgia that's the give away.

Now I'll start off with my philosophical deference in this subject, this is not a question of qualification... This question comes up quite often especially in debates about american presidents... Bt i don't believe for myself that anyone is "qualified" to lead the fate of millions and arguably billions with their decisions... So... I would say of the 3 (technically 4) candidates for the prime minister, harper is by far the best fit to lead the nation. He's been prime minister for 5 years, he's kept Canada in a strong position even after a global economic downturn that hit everyone pretty hard and for all his failings he's a politician who isn't perfect. If not him, interestingly I'd pick Layton over Iggy (who biasedly I'd admit i dislike very much) and i certainly wouldn't pick a traitor of a nation a prime minister (Duceppe). All in all. Harper will remain unless there's some major scandal or revelation and in view he hopefully remains minority, while i think Harper should remain prime minister, i don't want to see a conservative majority either. Your thoughts?

Yeah i have to say i did like that. Layton to me is kind of like an old bulldog. I do not like Iggy so i appreciated the punch

The biggest problem with Iggy is that he's only making the case about how bad a prime minister harper is, and not why he'd be a good prime minister.

All in all. No one was incredibly impressive. They ALL on the whole debated like amateurs. But i think Harper came out on top.

Well it wouldn't be if any of these guys were actually effective debaters. Give me an American presidential debate any day over this pigs slop.

What kinda pie?

Bingo. Within 0.85 seconds.

I like Laytons point about proportional representation. I share that view.

Oh and everything that's come from Iggy's mouth is just the gospel truth. I'm not disagreeing with you I'm only gonna point out that saying a politician is telling half truths and lies is as redundant as saying that the sky is blue.

None of them are exactly "blowing me away" Layton looks likes a deer in the headlights. I'm pretty sure ignotgonnawinfuckall has repeated himself about 10, 000 times so far. Harper... Meh he could definitely address some of the charges thrown his way a little better, Duceppe is still being well.. Duceppe... Useless and unimportant.

Lack of Prosperity? Are you insane? Sure the more rural areas of Nova Scotia aren't exactly booming. But I'd say Halifax is doing VERY VERY well in these times.

So you're saying a political coalition is not impossible then?

The simple answer to your question is, what does it take in Parliament to make one a prime minister. Lets look at England ATM for your answer. I'll be waiting.

A fair point. But Ignatieff knows he'll never win a majority in Parliament, so how does he intend to become Prime Minister? It's blatantly obvious since the NDP, Liberals and Bloc aren't attacking eachother, they intend to form a coalition to defeat the Conservatives.

Me too, I think Canada just needs to stay on course, it's got us through this Global recession relative to our southern neighbors somewhat scathed but unbloodied. We need consistency in these times. And While I don't agree with Harper on everything. I don't want Ignatieff Prime minister. Pretty simple.

When did Stephen Harper try to form a coalition with the Bloc Quebecois. I'll be waiting for your answer.

Nah "right quick" is the ticket. Generally in my experience it's an east coast expression.

Actually if you'd notice, I did not comment on your political affiliation. Wanna play victim? That's your choice. I was merely seeing if you're a maritimer, nothing more nothing less *shrugs So I'll comment on your post now. Stephen Harper is a politician first and foremost, I don't agree with that particular policy no. However what Stephen Harper does is irreverent to the topic of how Layton intends to pay for the benefits he wants to increase (not that we have to worry about that anyway since the NDP is on the "not a chance in hell" they'll be elected Ticket. Anything else?

Beds are a nice place too. I'm sure some of the woman of Canada like my bed as well

Right quick eh? Maritimer?

Laytons an idiot. What does he say he wants to do? Double benefits and pensions? Yeah Mr. Layton, that's all well and good. But perhaps your mustache can tell me how you're going to pay for all of that

Please explain your statement a little further.
