for the sake of Canada and your city she better not win. Just the scare of communism can/has shut down a region. it's been done in the US.

let me better explain the stances of the political parties in canda:

NDP: Socialist Totalitarians
Liberals: Corrupt Totalitarians
PC: Postionless Totalitarians
Alliance: Idiotic Totalitarians
and
The Marijuana Party of Canada: Stoned Libertarians

if i had to vote, (which i don't), i'd vote weed party all the way.

I'm not trying to sound un-american, but the majority of the things I have heard, read or seen about American Liberals is not the same as Canadian ones. We're a different country so we have different problems and agendas
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

meh she's not Russian Communism, it's more NDP x 10, she's not into all the opression or anything, just a very left wing party. She's well repected and actually a very good and intelligent person, she's just to Left wing even for my very left city. Plus people are still uncomfortable by communism.

PS she's also running in Brandon West, which is the wealthy end of town, and the only place of conservitive strength, so she would never win, although in the east she might at least be a competitive canidate, seeing as how it's very working class, and hasn't had a non-left wing party in pwer in 35 years

vote, even if you have to choose the lesser of evils, because how does not voting help? It isn't going to cause government to fall, it only causes tyrants and idiots like GWB to come into power

yup, it just puts people you don't want into office, and it gives you things that you didn't ask for.
