If u are wondering who the undecided voters are the following article has a view on who those voters are but one thing it does have on common with the polls...the Tories are the losers. http://abacusdata.ca/research-note-who-are-the-undecided-voters/

This poll repeals a historical truth - that the undecided always breaks down exactly as the decided do. Of the 24% declaring as undecided - only a 5% slice of that group feels it is best to keep Conservatives in office.

This is as close to unanimous as the polling world gets.

Don't jinx the election.

The NDP thought they had the last BC provincial election in the bag but they managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Unlimited economic growth has the marvelous quality of stilling discontent while preserving privilege, a fact that has not gone unnoticed among liberal economists.

It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.

I agree it's a little early to put the champagne on ice, but hell, the NDP transition team has now met twice and CPC candidates are peeing into coffee mugs.

What could possibly go wrong?

So... young and uneducated females are going to be the deciding factor in the election! Why am I not surprised?

The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so. - Ronald Reagan


I have said that the Western world is just as violent as the Islamic world - Dialamah


Europe seems to excel at fooling people to immigrate there from the ME only to chew them up and spit them back. - Eyeball


Unfortunately our policies have contributed to retarding and limiting their (Muslim's) society's natural progression towards the same enlightened state we take for granted. - Eyeball

The one item that could change the NDP lead is of those undecided, who don't agree with the NDP about the Senate. I think most Canadians want to change the senate and reform it to today's standard and if the government back in 1867, didn't think we need it, they wouldn't have created it. I think not having the senate would give too much power to a majority government and if the senate was make up of everyday people, separate from the House, it would serve Canadians better.

Rumblings coming from the far left on mulcairs turn to the right. What is the NDP position on the military?

Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.

The rumblings you hear are most likely dissent within the Conservative campaign. The campaign's manager is now under open fire; heavily vetted "trained seals" now boo media questions at every stop, its leader now grovels for votes with "I'm not perfect" statements, and the entire dysfunctional Tory bubble campaign will soon be polling south of 25%.

Time to accept the inevitable, Pik.

When I first got involved in politics about 50 years ago, an old campaigner advised me; "You can win an election on hope or fear. It you can use both then you are assured a win."

Now 50 years later and many, many campaigns later, I have learned that he was absolutely correct.

Note - For those expecting a response from Big Guy: I generally do not read or respond to posts longer then 300 words nor to parsed comments.

This election is not for the NDP to win, but for the CPC to lose!

Most Canadians ate conservative at heart, and so a principled and competent conservative-leaning candidate would be a shoe-in in most ridings.

The problem is with the lack of principles and competence of the CPC. The Libertarian Party could fill the void on the CPC's fringes (and with that party having moderated its policies over the years, it's no longer as fringe as it used to be), but that still leaves a vacuum within the non-libertarian conservative movement.

With friends like Islamists, what Muslim needs enemies?
