    Yeah it doesn't seem to be the Aussie guy, because it seems to have been by the same strategist which suggested Harper shouldn't participate in the consortium debate.
  2. G Huxley
    Why should any of the parties get public resources?
  3. G Huxley
    Well you better not vote conservative as none of their candidates are allowed to go to all candidates' meetings.
  4. G Huxley
    No party won a majority of the votes casted. That is correct. As I already said I accidentally used the wrong word.
  5. G Huxley
    Yes he has by openly joining the Neoconservative "crusade" in Bush's own words and with his bellicose rhetoric.
  6. G Huxley
    Well we didn't use an inflatable substitute, but someone put a teddy bear in front of the mike on the conservative candidate's empty seat.
  7. G Huxley
    I meant majority.
  8. G Huxley
    The people organizing the debates are organizing under the false pretenses of a non partisan charity when it has been shown that they fund right wing think tanks.

    The future is always uncertain. If there is not the possibility for change then we don't live in a democracy.

    The vote results aren't in this election. She has enough candidates in the party she is leading to potentially become the next Prime Minister if Canadians vote for them. May is in fact a PM candidate, whether you like it or not.
  11. G Huxley
    You are forgetting that no party won a plurality of votes. So we have the minority running the country. That's right that's called an oligarchy.
  12. G Huxley
    Again official party is irrelevent it has nothing to do with the debates. It's simply an internal commons thing. And it is merely a method of the political elite to entrench their positions while marginalizing others. I would say that it is in fact anti-democratic.

    "In reality we don't need to hear from all parties anyway. All you need to hear from are your local candidates, since that's the way elections work in Canada." Well thanks to the conservatives they don't think the public needs to hear from their local candidates either!

    For me it's not really a question of left or right anymore. That over simplifies things and plays into the traditional Us vs Them b.s. games. It's a question of who will do the best for the environment and for Canada. (one and the same) Although my position is more left wing oriented, I also get nauseous over a lot of things coming from the left like we need to let in a gazillion immigrants to improve the economy. What they don't get is that that is the worst thing possible for the environment, but since such politics is consensused based even the best parties end up catering to it to get elected. That's why whenever a party starts getting major attention and starts doing well I start getting disillusioned with it.
  15. G Huxley
    Who came up with this idea anyway? Is it the Aussie guy or the same guy who said that Harper should refuse to take part in the traditional debates?
  16. G Huxley
    You can't justify not taking part in Democracy by whining that the media is unfair to you.
  17. G Huxley
    This isn't a democracy since the Demos is being sidelined from a fair election.
  18. G Huxley
    Oh oh stepping out of party line by showing up for the second debate. Heaven forbid.
  19. G Huxley
    Elizabeth May is a PM candidate.
  20. G Huxley
    Ah but we will at least have democracy. And that's the difference.
  21. G Huxley
    And cows will fly in conservative fantasy-land.
  22. G Huxley
    Theoretically anyone running can get elected if we really live in a democracy. The Greens have enough candidates running to win the election if Canadians vote that way. The only poll that really counts is the one on election day.
  23. G Huxley
    If the Greens can't possibly win this election as you claim. Then we don't live in a democracy we live in a dictatorship. Logic 101
  24. G Huxley
    The Greens hold 10 senate seats in Aus. They've obviously lost a lot of support in Germany recently. 25 seats in Sweden is numerous.
  25. G Huxley
    It makes perfect sense. It's against the law for charities to be partisan and discriminate politically. The 'charity' has been funding right wing think tanks and discluding other candidates.
