rude and sarcastic.

That was pretty cool.. My % makes it almost a 3 way split.... What surprised me is how on many questions I am to the Right of all parties or to the Left of all parties whereas they are hugging the middle road. Thus.. some of my responses when I checked them.. i laughed cause even the right wing party was on the leftwing side of the position..and I found that amusing and visa versa for some questions. So while the % outcome was a 4 way split... the actual answers.. I rarely found myself in a box with one of the other parties.. a but I did see the Political parties sharing alot more ground. Sometimes 3 parties in a Somewhat agree or Somewhat disagree and one party always sitting neutral... 58 NDP 55 WR 54 LPC 35 PC (They seem to be the most in the middle choices I guess)..

You are in Canada.. You are speaking about an Alberta Election and you are being rude and ignorant to the readers here. You aren<t the first. But you should take note.. You were ignorant, rude and don`t even realize the irony of the PCs throwing stones at the Wildrose. They are involved in gutter politics and its been a rotten first week. No wonder voter turnout in Alberta is the lowest of any province.

The first i had seen of this crap.. running ads years before the election.. was with Dion. I cannot recall it happening anytime previouis in our history. I remember being offended..not by the ad but by the fact that it wasn<t even and election period and we had to be subjected to this crap. And it was the start of a new way of life for the Conservatives. All the attacks all the time.. and no peace for the general public. And ... it worked... it kept the CON base mobilized.. and it drove off alot of mainstream voters .. and it continues to drive away voters. The Conservatives did it again with iggy, are doing so now with Rae and should start anytime soon with Mulcair.. It is the new norm.. it sux but so does the party that does them... I would expect that all parties are going to have to bombard the viewers with this crap if they want to compete with the sleaze. Until someone finds a better way.. that is..

That is how rude people speak. You are rude.

It looks bad for them.. I think they have run their course.. I will be surprised if they receive a majority again..

you are mean..

The idea was.. that he and his wife were trying to immigrate with their son (therefore they can`t be Canadian).... and their daughter was born here.. but good to see you on board with immigration ruling..

Americans will benefit from the Prof and the Nurse.. and so will the child as their economic status should get them great affordable healthcare.. no different then the private policy the UofV would have... Its our loss and he doesn<t seem to bitter about it.. There are alot of rejections comig down the pipes.. get used to seeing more based on medical.. What isn<t a concern for this government is foreign migrant workers... they encourage them to work here for less money and then go home to china...and come back again.... So.. consider immigration will be tighter... and Migrant Workers to be 3times the number of immigrants..

Well many many many corporations in the US earn more monies then many countries.. so its going to be the norm when corporations have more inoome then Canada has GDP and its not unusual for corporations to call the shots.. its always been that way.. they just have more power today then they ever had... Peoples power is in their vote.. look at voting trends and look at their individuals economic outcomes.. Lower voter turnout then we have ever seen before and the first generation to earn less then their parents is now in the pipes... There is an old saying in the US from the dirty 30s... If you don`t vote.. you don`t matter..

Its rather ironic that the generation that is benefiting the most is the Boomer Generation.. but that has little to do with it size as much as it has to do with Politics. It just happens to be that the boomer generation came in after their parents created the Social Welfare State...and its been a good thing.. if you like HealthCare, Pensions , etc.. The thing is the Politics of the Boomers.. about 40% OF THEM is on course with alot of the x gens who have bought into the myth that the benefits they received can't be passed on to the next generation for xyz reasons... pick one. It has to do with politics.. If you want something .. VOTE... Those who believe voting doesn't make a difference... don't realize these things just don\t get given to you.. you have to fight for a piece of the pie... and you have to fight for your share... And I laugh at the statement that it would be worse with the NDP... The argument is normally the opposite... You would get all these things.. and the economy would crash.. so goes the myth...

Plenty of right wing media available to appoint as communications director.. Kinda foolish to ask a Liberal or NDP to be your communication director...

Exactly....

"are you suggesting" "Do you mean this when you say this.." Always feels like manipulation when i read statements thab begin with those words..

Thats a rediculous statement

Sorry dude.. no idea what you are talking about... Lets hear your ideas.. but it sounds like your position would inflame the situation... Last Election.. 3 federalist parties finished above the BQ! I want to see them BQ reduced to zero.. but others are quite happy to see BQ polling numbers rise..

double post.

Quite frankly.... I came on MLW many years back... long before there was an NDP prescence on this board. I do see alot of NEW NDP posters.. or supporters, but its hard to tell... the Liberals have more or less disappeared.. although there are some still here..but not in the masses.. There are alot more independent non aligned and even non voters on MLW ... all with opinions... I have one just like you do... I share a different view of Quebec. I believe and I don't know how to search on here.. but alot of my posts regarding the BQ were seen as extreme on this thread... whereas I felt the CPC , LPC were not doing enough... On top of that.. I had long disagreed with Liberal Buzz Hargroves promotion of the BQ to stop Harper. I have no use for the Separtists.. I don't believe their is a need to fuel up separtists anxiety ... But some political parties can't resist tossing some fuel on the fire or light a match...for political points because they would rather have the BQ then not ... And thats a fact...

me... what do u want me to propose... lmao.. Perhaps there needs to be Provincial NDP in Quebec. As far as I know none of the Parties from the ADQ , the PQ or the Libs let alone all the other minor parties don't campaign on signing the constitution.. infact.. I don't know anyone in the mood for constitutional talks of anykind anglophone or Francophone..

btw.. I am just a poster on MLW... like yourself.. So when you suggest U folks... I speak for myself , just like in other threads where I see U and I are on a similar page.. I still post as me...

Last I checked.. the Succession of Liberal Provincial Governments including those led by the Former Leader of the Federal Progressive Conservative Party... Haven't lead the charge to sign on the dotted line... next question please...

Its not the 60s and 70s anymore. Separatism is out.... I doubt even the PQ will have the stomach to start a referendum ... Duceppe did his hail mary with the Separatism card and blew it bigtime. Its a lesson learned ... The is no interest in Quebec... And you keep bringing up Terrorism vs a Political Party. Trudeau went after the terrorists.. He allowed the Separtists to govern when they were elected. There have been two votes.. both not able to meet the 50% threshold. And now there isn't any interest in it, the separtists are old and tired.... the only ones who need this phoney war are Liberals and Bloc.. The Conservatives need the NDP in Quebec so they can have a new whipping boy...

Yes, the workload is alot. Que up a cushy Senate Seat for THE former Communications Director.

I see the BQ are at 4 seats and were low in the polls.. but now they are rising in the polls. I am sure everyone will be happy about that.
