That's the way it should be done. I voted differently in 2011 than I did this year. People don't do that and voting based on the party you like is the lazy way to vote.Mr. C.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18145537941261182648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3520413.post-75932853867984710732015-11-06T11:55:13.991-07:002015-11-06T11:55:13.991-07:00Well said guys.
I've pretty much always voted ...Well said guys.<br />I've pretty much always voted for the local guy, or the needs I see in that season of life for our country. So in my history I've voted all over the map. And I'm ok with that.<br /><br />What I am getting tired of is the shots, the lies, the innuendo, the smear campaigns. I'm tired of professional politicians and personal agenda, and I'm really tired of them all not working together for the best of Canada. And I'm not just talking presently. It feels as thought the whole system has moved more and more in that direction over the years.<br /><br />And to take a stick and poke at it, either side, just evokes a crap storm that only leaves one smelling like crap. That doesn't help persuade or convince anyone.<br /><br />All governments seem to tend towards corruption after time, and so will this one probably eventually. But maybe thats one reason we are called to pray for them all.<br /><br />Maybe some of the blame lies with us.<br /><br />Randall Friesenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04112919973262687369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3520413.post-89075862178984205702015-10-20T10:04:55.007-06:002015-10-20T10:04:55.007-06:00I voted the way that would allow me to sleep at ni...I voted the way that would allow me to sleep at night.<br />I voted based on my experiences as a man with a disability, what I have observed since I became an adult and concerned about politics, and the way I was raised to be.<br /><br />Throughout the campaign I tried to keep my mouth mostly shut and will continue to do so in the future. Some things and some topics stir deep inside me and I cannot remain silent. Too often I remain silent when I feel the need to speak about what I believe is right. Those omissions often do not sit well with me but I just don't have it in me to have those debates, discussions or out right arguments. What I would love to see would be exactly which express, minimal cheap shots and immature sentiments… from both sides! Bad winners are just as intolerable as bad losers.<br /><br />Angie is always right in that things change remarkably slowly. I'm not going to jump and declare that the sky is falling. However, I am going to be prepared that should there be cuts to the Registered Disability Savings Plan, the Tax-Free Savings Plan or murmurings of another long gun registry, I will be prepared to invest all that I can, while I can and maybe purchase Fiona's first target rifle and tuck it away for her until she is old enough and educated to use it.<br /><br />I agree that it is wonderful to live in a country where we can vote freely and without fear. I hope we always hold ourselves to that standard as I would expect nothing less from this country.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14186869322975478054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3520413.post-77102303281285278582015-10-20T09:37:27.826-06:002015-10-20T09:37:27.826-06:00A lot of people voted just to get him out of offic...A lot of people voted just to get him out of office. Those people will than complain about Justin Trudeau in due time. I don't know if you find it odd, but when Richard Nixon was in office, he made a trip to Canada and said to Pierre Trudeau that he would have a child as Prime Minister.
