Vote on June 28th

Now, I normally would fully support the decision to NOT vote, as this is as good a political statement as any, but in this coming election (to echo a common phrase), a vote for no one is a vote for the Conservatives.

For those of you who want gun-toting racists deciding on the future of this country, then by all means vote for the neo-cons, but for those who don't want to have to flee the country (and I suspect there at least a few of you, though the sea of blue lawnsigns make it hard to believe), please vote for anyone but them.

If you won't vote for the Liberals, don't think that any other vote is throwing it away. If you accept any of the other parties platforms, then vote for them--NDP, Green, Marijuana, Marxist-Leninist, Communist, Natural Law, or anyone else. PLEASE !

And if you believe in the new Conservatives policies, then just move to the U.S. where these policies are already mostly in effect (tax cuts, decaying health care, lack of gun control, etc), and leave this wonderful country for those of us who appreciate it for what it is, as it is. Remember, a Reform-er by any other name still smells as gun-toting and racist...

Historically, I would never encourage someone to vote for someone they didn't strongly believe in, but I strongly believe in keeping this country as a leader in its own social policy, economics, and foreign policy--not a follower of our Big Brother (in both senses of the term) to the south...
