Don't Agree with Another Election? Sign the Petition

[jschell]

For pretty much a year now the Opposition parties have been playing partisan games in the House of Commons and keep threatening to topple the government. All this does is slow down any economic recovery that was underway.

Are you fed up with all of the games in Ottawa? Want to voice your opinion and let the Opposition parties know that Canadians don't want another election?

Sign the "No Fall Federal Election" petition and let your voice be heard loud and clear:

Stop playing games and concentrate on strengthening the economy!!

Sign Now!

That's not the way our system works, a petition is useless if there is a no confidence motion. If you want to make your voice heard call your MP and let them know. It'll achieve a lot more than some internet petition that people who matter will never read.

Approving of the conservative attitude personally - I vote right...BUT Harper has to go...for one reason and one reason only - for allowing a thousand young men to become crippled mentally and physically - for facilitating the deaths of fine young men in Afghanistan - for no reason other than to please the American corporates - Harper is not fit - a Prime Minister is like the father of a nation - He did not protect his sons - he sacraficed them - with no reward - for no reason - wasted these beautiful young men ...for that and only that he must lose the next election...other than that - I am sure he's an okay guy - but a father is not a father if he fails to protect his family - He did not protect Canada ---------------------what has this Afghani "mission" accomplished? NOTHING.

Thank you time to vote someone in who has tried to bring the boys home the whole time. The Liberals have done nothing but supported the Afghan mission time for the NDP.

Well Oleg, at least some young Afghani girls got to go to school, for the first time in their lives!

Perhaps it doesn't matter to you but many others of us think differently.

Iggy might be a real conservative - that conserves our wealth and lives and the lives of our marshall class - our soldiers are precious and should never be duped or used as if they are disposable - look how the Bushites and now Obama - is continuing to waste human resourses in a murderous manner..as for Layton _ maybe if guided properly and advised by liberal and real conservative thinkers might just be able to run the place...I have deep resentment for anyone who believes they are God - and killing directly or indirectly is horrific..killing our own children is what it amounts to - the neo-con artists can F off! I would rather have the nation fall into total well mangaged socialism if it saves one single life. The liberals would never insist on bringing the boys home - because they play the emotional card..an emotion generated out of foolish and wrongful patriotism....I guess the "high way of heros" serves liberal purpose - I doubt that the NDP is not above emotional manipulation of the people...we have a real problem ---to much ambition and not enough caring benevolent leadership.

Useless thread.

Oleg look into Ignatieff's history and writings, as well as the history of the LPC in this matter, before you make your decision.

Once again, however, you've managed a giant block of text full of useless natterings in which you wrote a lot but said very little.

My typing skills are quick - so there is volume - just get iggy out - get harper out - and let the citizens run the place though Layton - what do you think of that?

Now work on your punctuation and the people here might actually read your posts. As it stands, your posts are painful to read and for every word a normal person would post you string it out into 5.

So you figure that I am intelligent and wise - but am long winded? Okay let my try your method.

Harper assisted in the killing of our soldiers for no good reason...he must step down. How was that?

No comment, no comment - YES.

Now work on your critical/objective thinking. There are a myriad of problems with pulling out immediately from Afghanistan. You can chew on that by yourself though because that gets us way off topic.

OLEG STAYS!!! Whether I read his posts or not. A fixture that I like on MLW.

[Topaz]

Tell me iscshell, did you want an election the first time? the second time, how about the last election did you want it? Why is okay for Harper to call an election when it suits him but not when he may lose this one? He made Oct 9th election day so lets get it done and over with!

[punked]

Agreed. I sometimes read what I want too out of his posts. He is NDP.

How did this guy get to start a thread? I thought new members had to post 5 times in existing threads before starting a new one themselves.

Bring on the next election; hopefully we can get a majority this time so we don't have to go through this again in a year's time. (A Liberal majority, that is.)

This election will be a pointless exercise.

The way the polls are looking it will be another conservative minority with fewer seats... so pretty much the same as we have now. The other option is a Liberal minority that will be taken down within another year from the election.

A doubt there is any chance of a majority in either direction this time around.

[capricorn]

This election will be a pointless exercise.

The only significant event I can foresee is that whichever leader loses will cease to be their party's leader.

Unless of course, if the Conservatives win the slimmest of minorities, Ignatieff may resuscitate the coalition. If the GG installs him as PM he will survive as Liberal leader.

Better yet vote conservative give them a majority and have 3-5 years of no more partisan games and un-needed.

Right, vote against our principles so you can have some stability (because Canada is simply buckling under the pressure of elections ).

Our principles?

We who don't necessarily agree with Conservatism, or conservatism, or religious influence on politics. It's a rather broad group of people. I wasn't speaking for only people that agree with me, but rather people that disagree with Harper.

I'm wrong about what I (and potentially others) think.....ok.
