Canadian eh? So many choices. The election.
Ok so I admit not my best title ever. So todays topic is the canadian election. Yes voting day is coming up. January 23rd. Surprisingly it looks like it is going to be a conservative government. Who would have ever thought? So all those canadians out there do you have a favorite part of this elction race. It has been a long long long one.
Two of my favorites of the past little while are: Paul Martins criticism of Stephen Harper wanting to strengthen canadas military. An ad that was not suppose to have made it on tv. It made it on to their website and onto quebecs screens. It was absolutley hilarious. Apparently strengthening our military for times of need is a horror to paul martin. Paul Martins statement during the second english language debate saying he was going to get rid of the not withstanding clause at the federal level. Uhh Mr. Martin no one at the federal level uses it anyways... So there has been some interesting statments made very definetly. Oh and I almost forgot Scott Reid of the liberals beer and popcorn statement. Ahh a classic. I think it would be a good idea now to introduce you to the pary leaders.
What They Say
I'll start with Paul Martin. Paul Martin "I know fundamentally that Stephen Harper is horribly mean. Really just look at the guy he is fundamentally horrid and icky. Fundamentally.I love canada!"
Stephen Harper "Im a nice guy. I can smile see. I like canada. My attacks are factual his are just mean."
Jack Layton "I'm stll here guys. Choose me. Working families are the most important. Really we could get in. Vote for me me. Come on!"
Gilles Duceppe "I dislike anyone who thinks quebec is the same as the rest of canada. We have rights you know. Seperate rights." Just for the heck of it I will throw in a few more even thought they really don't matter.... Ji
m Harris "Why wasent I invited to the leaders debate? I wanna be there too let me play. I can make a difference."
And of course the marajuana party guy who I can't remember the name of at the moment.... "So I think that this stuff is like totally great man for like sick people and whoever."
So what do you think? Who has the best attack ads? The worst? The most memorable? Any thoughts at all on the election do you think Harper is "icky"? Well I hope all the canadians out there go out and vote whethere it be for the fundamentally fundamental Mr. Martin or the attention grabbing Mr. Layton. Oh one interesting fact did you know that Harper is actually the youngest out of them all? Out of the 4 top ones. Also if he does make it in he will be the youngest on the G-8 dealie. Think about it. Fundamentally.
