Conservative sign on my lawn

[mikedavid00]

Although I'm a Libertarian and am anti-authoritarian (pretty much), I'm also a realist and given the choices, I'll never vote anything other than Conservative (unless the old Reform party came back).

This time around there is not an immigrant running in my riding so I will support my candidate (no I will not support a race based candidate who hijacked the local electorate with his community.. that is a form of corruption in Canada that I do NOT endorse and support and will NOT endorse these people coming into my country and hijacking our political system with their ethnic community. My city is not comprised of Sikh's wearing cloth on their heads from the third world. Thus, him and his friends should not show up at the Conservative race and tip the vote to his favor to represent my riding. That is what happened last election. This is complete corruption).

No. I do not believe that any member of our elected officials should be allowed to run if they are an immigrant. That goes for federal, provincial, municipal. No immigrants in office. France included. You don't like it, don't come here. Get out of the country. And GET OUT of our political system.

Anyhow, I have a HUGE BLUE CONSERVATIVE sign on my lawn in my neighborhood. This is really funny. I'm sure my neighborhood is shooken up and upset at the sign on my lawn.

I'm actually afraid of getting my car vandalized.

Maybe I should call up my riding's office and order another one for the other side of my lawn. 2 HUGE SIGNS LOL! I can take a pic and post it up. NO ONE here has a sign. Most of my street are.. shall we say.. 'contributing tax payers' (read into that what you will) and our street is conservative but afraid to put up signs to 'offend' anyone.

Oh well.. I still won't waste my time voting this time around. I know the Libs will take so why waste my time?

(hmm.. wonder how many other alienated Con supporters in my riding there are that just don't want to bother because they know the immigrants have hijacked our riding and we don't want to bother going out to vote).

I hate the Liberal party of Canada with all my heart and sole. I honestly have hate for them and all the damage they have caused this country. My hate grew when I went through my first medical experience. I hate them for what they did to us. When I can't hear English being spoken around me ALL DAY LONG, I have hate and contempt to the utmost for the Liberals. And I can assure you, as sure as day I have a hatred for Ignatieff. So much so that I can't even stand watching his smug face on TV. We need to extradite him from Canada and stop our duel citizen program. GET OUT IGNATIEFF AND STAY OUT AFTER THIS ELECTION YOU )(&*(^&(*^

Wow, you are a very articulate guy with cogent, well reasoned arguments . Have you thought of running for public office yourself?

[cybercoma]

It's posts like fellowtraveller's that make me wish forums had a Facebookesque Like button for posts.

I have a mental picture of MikeDavid and his sign...

The electoral process is corruption. Yeah right.

Well. If they are elected official, they have run already.

Sharing political leanings with you would be pretty upsetting, indeed.

Great suggestion. The Rhinoceros Party is short on out-of-Quebec candidates.

Mike, I'm not sure if you're even serious! In all my time with Reform, I never once met someone with views as extreme as yours. You're certainly entitled to them and I will defend to the death your right to hold them but still, I sincerely doubt you ever would have been accepted as a riding candidate for office.

Likewise your claim to be a Libertarian. You should take a tip from Ayn Rand, who once called racism an illogical expression of perverted reasoning.

If you had stopped when you referred to a "race based candidate" I would have agreed with you, although I think you are confusing race and culture. Race is truly irrelevant but culture most definitely is not! I too believe that our traditional Canadian culture is worth preserving and should be dominant. I too believe that it should never be an issue with choosing a candidate. Using an ethnic heritage to seize a riging is undemocratic and unethical, like mixing religion and politics. That's what happened in Chuck Cadman's riding years ago and what a mess that turned out to be!

Oh well, I too call myself libertarian in many of my views and I too am proud to have been a Reformer. Yet you and I seem very different. The beauty of Reform was its populism, however. Both of us could belong to such a party, knowing that we would be free to express our views and try to persuade other party members to share them. I happen to thing that I would have had a much easier time of it than you but hey, the important thing was the populist principle!

Whatever. Peace, brother! Farm out!

In the city I live, I have no difficulty wahtsoever hearing people talking in English. Perhaps you should try moving here. It's called Toronto.

And it's one of the most, if not the most multi-cultural city in North America.

[cybercoma]

I too believe that our traditional Canadian culture is worth preserving and should be dominant.

What is Canadian culture? How far back does our "tradition" go? Canadian culture was very different just 60 years ago. Go back another 50 years and it was different still. Go back 300 years and the voyageurs in their canoes had an entirely different culture yet again. When you really stop and think about what "traditions" and what "culture" you believe is Canadian, I urge you to really think about whose culture that is and why it is perceived as our "national" culture. The Maple Leaf and O Canada came from somewhere very specific and they might be considered part of our culture and identity. One of the competing songs for our national anthem was The Maple Leaf Forever, which I'm sure you're familiar. However, with lyrics like this it only represented a narrow-minded version of our culture:

In days of yore, from Britain's shore,

Wolfe, the dauntless hero, came

And planted firm Britannia's flag

On Canada's fair domain.

Here may it wave, our boast our pride

And, joined in love together,

The thistle, shamrock, rose entwine

The Maple Leaf forever!

While I strongly support the preservation of and the teaching of our history, we must be very careful when talking about culture. Culture is dynamic and one must reflect seriously upon whether or not there can be an all encompassing Canadian culture. Moreover, when you talk about dominance, you infer that other cultures will be crushed. At best its insensitive to people and at its ugliest its cultural genocide.

It's parka based. One coat to rule them all.

I'll never vote anything other than Conservative

Fixed it for ya....rain again huh?

This time around there is not an immigrant running in my riding so I will support my candidate

Yea yea ...but not vote for him. I will instead sit around in my baggy jockeys and mutter my support.

I'm actually afraid of getting my car vandalized.

Come on mikey, you dont have a car and no one wants to vandalize your Big Wheel either.

Oh well.. I still won't waste my time voting this time around. I know the Libs will take so why waste my time?

Really? Oh my!

Most of my street are.. shall we say.. 'contributing tax payers'

Probably out working and earning some cash, of course you arent.

Oh mikey, thanks for letting kimmy make me laugh out loud. You probably are a good 'sole'

He's easy to mock, but he does bring up a constant electoral irritant with ethnics/immigrants. The parties should not allow newcomers - and by that I mean newcomers to the party - to suddenly flood nomination meetings with new members in order to hijack a nomination. This is something the parties are kind of afraid to confront because most of the people who do this are immigrants, and they're afraid of being seen as anti-immigrant, or trying to keep immigrants out. But it's a gross injustice, and it pisses off the people who have been working steadily in a riding association for years to suddenly have some guy in a funny hat come in, plunk down his ten bucks, and then bring in hundreds more people with funny hats to vote him in as the candidate.

1. You are not a Libertarian nor do you understand the meaning of the word. You would find quite the home in a Canadian version of the British National Party (or perhaps you could start speaking French and join the Parti Quebecois).

2. Based on your logic, the only people that should qualify for office are First Nations people, since you and everyone else come from immigrants.

3. Your hate for the Liberals isn't even remotely based on anything reasonable. You are irrational and likely need to seek help.

4. Just how much fish do you have?

Nominations for local candidates should only be based on votes from the party members who are residents in a particular riding.

Nice ignoring of the point, btw.

[Scotty]

Only for those with small brains.

It's an irritant for everyone who gets involved in the electoral process and who works hard at the local ridings. I'm guess you're just ignorant - not that I have to guess, since you're ignorant in the way you're behaving, but also that you're ignorant about the situation, in addition to being ignorant in your behaviour that is.

And, I guess, being ignorant, you're not capable of discussing anything like this in a rational way.

Not that it would be easy for you to think rationally what with your knee jerking up and down so frantically it's giving you a bloody nose.
