I find it "funny" that we have to live with the decision, but the seperatist/socialist coalition does't have to "live with OUR decision made just a couple of months ago.
-
I agree we just elected a Conservative minority government. But if the opposition has lost confidence than they should go to the people for power, not the GG. also I think things may have changed substantially, not so much in the last month and a half, but in the last hour and a half.
-
I am going to state this again Harper doesn't have the authority to call an election, that is the GG's job. She probably has difficulty calling an election when the seperatists/socialist coalition is offering to govern without the consent of the people. Clearly it is the coalition that doesn't want to go to the people, COWARDS for sure. They are the ones who can chose to go to the people, not Harper.

Harper doesn't have the ability to call an election, thats the GGs' job, but since the seperatist/socialist coalition is offering to govern without the consent of the people, i'm not sure what the GG will do.

I think the Conservatives were only 11 seats short of a majority, they wouldn't have to win a "massive" amount of seats in Quebec to reach 154
-
I would expect more seats everywhere including Quebec, but also Toronto. Now that Canadians can see a crystal clear choice between a Seperatist/Socialist coalition lead by the worst performing Liberal leader in history, or the Conservative government I am confident in the outcome. The oppsition parties aren't confident in the outcome or they would go to the people.
-
If the Liberals, ndp, and Seperatists had the courage to run on their coalition platform, The Consevatives would probably get the ever elusive 51%. But they don't want to go to the people do they?
-
Sounds good. Let the Liberals, NDP, and Seperatists run on the coalition platform, and the Conservatives will probably get that elusive 50%. Has anybody ever got 51%?
-
I hope the GG forces the losing parties to go to the people for confidence. Ofcourse they don't want to do that because they are afraid of the voters
-
I would expect more than the 37% will remember this. There must be some voters who supported other parties must be embarrassed by this display. They cannot be proud of their parties actions
-
I certainly hope they never forget this
-
I just seen Ignatieff, Ray and Leblanc, together declaring their support for Dion as the Prime Minister of the new seperatist/socialist coalition
-
Was it acceptable for the Liberals to govern as though they had a "majority" for 11 or 12 years when on average 60% of Canadians voted against them.
-
It is true that the Conservatives did not recieve 50% of the votes. But 37% is less than 2% short of one of the Liberals "majority" governments, and with 3 so called "majorities" in a row the Liberals never came close to 50%, as I recall they never got over 42%. Were you Liberal mathmaticians complaining then. You lost the election get over it.
-
As I recall the " War on Drugs " was declared in the eighties, not 28 months ago when Harper was elected. Your Liberals had several majorities recently, apparrently they didn't legalize your list when they had the chance.

Stephen Harper Is Just Like George Bush
TomS replied to Joesixpack5's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
I really enjoy your intelligent debate technique. Your skillfull use of the words " moronic, maniac, and twits, is to be admired. Maybe you should write a book. -
Your words, "dumb, hypicritcal, twits," would seem to describe Dion and his Liberal MP better than it does the people on this thread. Since you are advocating the legalization of all drugs, which party is running on that? Until you manage to change the Law, do the citizens have to follow the existing Laws?

I second the motion -
When you are going to debate a certain policy, in this case guncontrol, it would be helpful to actually debate a certain policy. No matter how anti-gun ownership you are, you and everybody knows that there isn't anybody or any party that " want to give everybody a big gun,". If you can't find fault in the actual policy it leaves me wondering if the fault exists.

Stephen Harper Is Just Like George Bush
TomS replied to Joesixpack5's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Clearly Joe is infatuated with George Bush. It seems that the Left that always plays the anti-american card, doesn't have a real issue to hammer the Conservatives with. As usual they can run against an unpopular FORIEGN leader, like that has something to do with the price of rice in China. One thing for sure, nobody is going to compare Dion with any Leader, foriegn or domestic. -
What? I remember the Liberals were going to renegotiate Free Trade, instead signed it in to law six months after the election. I remember the Liberals were going to " scrap ", " kill", "abolish", the GST, instead nothing but a lie. The reason they could reuse the " Red Book ", was because they didn't fullfill any of the promises. Didn't the Liberals also abolish child poverty a few years ago.
-
I'm actually responding to the URL that you responded to. It appears as though if I or any other Canadian citizen does not agree with you on these or anything else they will be labelled. It is a week discussion trick to insult the opposition before it speaks up, of course in hopes that it will not, therfore limiting the general public from speaking up for fear of the Label, of your choice.

Who said I was on the right, I don't smoke because I believe it is unhealthy, I believe in evolution, I am agnostic, and I don't believe Al Gore or David Suzuki. I have respect for the equally educated scientists (of which there are many), who will not allow popular opinion to dictate there findings. If the facts devlop, I'm sure these equally educated scientists will see them also. Until then people who don't jump on the band-wagon should not be insulted for not following blindly.

Conservatives cancel $4.7M arts travel program
TomS replied to maldon_road's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
You failed to respond to the other half of the statement regarding the Liberals funding this program for eleven years and their ability to fix their mistake now. Maybe you didn't see that part?
