BigCity, I done like you in a couple electionvotes an' voted fer the Grits jest t' try an' keep the ConMen out. They got in anyways an' alls that happened was I felt like I voted against my own conscience. I din't feel like a good Canajun when I voted "against" instead o' "for". <br /><br />I ain't votin' strategic no more. The Cons an' the Grits is jest two sides o' the same worn out coin.<br /><br />Votin' Green might not elect a GPC MPP or MP but it sure as hell sends a message t' the gummint that Canajun voters care 'bout ol' Mother Earth. If they wanna win my vote, they need t' do what the Green voters is askin' fer. And I reckon with the GPC pollin' at 11%, they're gonna want my vote.<br /><br />When I voted Lib an' the Cons won (federally), my vote didn't really count. When I voted Green an' the Cons won, the Cons reversed their head-in-the-sand denial o' climate change.<br /><br />Ginty's pushin' fer switchin' Nanticoke t' nuke power. Nanticoke's in my backyard. I'll be out on the barricades along with plenty o' my naybers tryin' t' stop Ontariariario from crammin' tritium down my throat.<br /><br />JBJimBobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04603665575714484326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-38147863393408942572007-02-03T08:59:00.000-05:002007-02-03T08:59:00.000-05:00I think McGuinty took a big hit on the pay raise.I think McGuinty took a big hit on the pay raise.Steve Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04871113039374739208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-76316485115322087142007-02-03T08:26:00.000-05:002007-02-03T08:26:00.000-05:00The Star provided no margin of error and no date f...The Star provided no margin of error and no date for this poll.<br /><br />Providing a margin of error for phone, mail, internet, etc. polls is practically mandatory for journalists.<br /><br />A little sketchy, I'd say.Darren McEwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15545885204463975738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-65267767399347782092007-02-03T07:53:00.000-05:002007-02-03T07:53:00.000-05:00Anon,

McGuinty basically just built on the bullshit.<br /><br />Delisting of services like hearing and eye exams, while simultaneously refusing an substantive increase in welfare rates. Refusing to even consider a hike to a decent wage while crying about how MPPs need bigger salaries and then instituting that increase. The Health Premium.LHINs<br /><br />Mike Harris in a Liberal tie.<br /><br />and yet... I cannot stomach the thought of another lot of sick tory bastards in control.<br /><br />Which is the one positive of McGuinty thus far he hasn't pandered to so-cons.April Reign (aka Debra)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06622445888762058695noreply@blogger.com
