I've missed it. I know you all had voting yesterday. What happened?

tl;dr, our version of Bush Jr. just got elected back into office with a MAJORITY government to boot. Joy and bliss. =_=;;

Ick. That stinks.

Now there's your problem right there. With a political landscape like USA, you need a sunny, optimistic mindset to match our culture too.

Why just think on the bright side:

Now that you're the 51st state, your PM can import Sarah Palin to exterminate all that nasty biodiversity you've got there. And just think of all that arctic territory you've got that will become temperate farmland due to enhanced global warming! Don't worry about the land that will sink under the rising ocean or melt away with the polar ice caps. You can put all your poor people there and when they drown the money you would have put into welfare keeping them alive can go to tax cuts for the wealthiest 1% of your corporations.

Not working? Try going to the doctor (the insurance company will getting out of paying its fair share only happens to *other* people ) and getting some Prozac (at 10x the price you're used to paying)

Your sarcasm made me snicker. :P

That said, you missed the mandatory jail time for pot users (bye bye medicinal marijuana program) and increases in prison funding despite a steady decline in the crime rate over the last ten years, the potential for the legality of gay marriage to be brought back to the political tables and potentially overturned (thereby negating all the marriages of gay folks in this country, a particular point of contention for me with having gay family members that are happily hitched) and the ludicrous spending of thirty billion dollars on a shitton of fighter jets that we don't need in order to continue keeping our troops overseas and involved in a conflict that we were never involved in directly to begin with.

There's more, but... yeah. It's just depressing to think about. :(

Dont look at me,I didnt vote for em.

I voted Lib because the candidate in my riding was running for re-election. Boy, that was a wasted ballot, wasn't it? :x

(and yay! I approve of people that didn't vote for Harper. You are awesome because of this.)

I didnt vote because I have faith in/like the system. I voted cause I like to scare the fuck out of politicians.

I personally want an autonomous Constitutional Monarchy with a strong centralized government. And one who is not willing to rape western Canada.

That's an even better reason to vote. Nothing wrong with scaring the fuck out of politicians. :P

good old fashioned fun >:3 In Saskatchewan its tradition! We scared the dick off the western world with the CCF!
