Canada can no longer be classified as a democracy in my opinion.
First of all, the Bloc has NO PLACE in this "coalition" as it stands. They are NOT a federal party and therefore should not be allowed to represent the whole country. It's not right.
Secondly, WE THE PEOPLE voted our government in. I didn't like it, I didn't agree with who won, but that's who our Canada chose. It should remain that way. I cannot believe that the opposing/losing parties are just going to go in and do what they want anyway...why the hell did we spend 300 Million dollars and vote if it wasn't going to make one fucking bit of difference anyway?!?!?! I'm SOOOO angry!!!
Jack Layton, whom I was supporting to begin with is just as EVIL as Harper is now...could he not be charged with Treason????
I just don't understand why/how this is happening. Is our country now considered communist? Is that the opposite of democratic? I'm confused and I would really like some answers as to why the whiny 4th graders who are mad about the election results can stomp their feet and get their own way!!!!

More of the story for those who don't really know what I'm bitching about.
And just to quote one thing in that article that really ticked me off:
"Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe said his party is ready to support the coalition because the Conservatives chose partisan games based on ideological beliefs instead of considering the interests of Quebecers and Canadians."
Quebecers and Canadians????? WE ARE THE SAME GD COUNTRY....WE HAVE NOT SEPERATED!!!! Quebecers ARE Canadians!!!

I find myself following the State's politics more than our own lately.
With the election of Obama, a toxic period in America comes to an end. Isn't it great?
While I was in Toronto over the weekend, the economic disaster is showing. Retail shopping is down, and at this time of year, that's a scary thing, especially in a city like Toronto.
I'll write more later... speaking of economy, I have to go to my part-time, on call, sad little job that was the only 1 available for the 20,000 unemployed people in this city!
Later.
Great post!
