CANPOLI Whining goes hete

[(Anonymous)]

Nobody but me remembers that, instead of announcing an election like everyone thought he would, Chretien resigned instead? Too long ago in ancient history for the Failbook generation to process?

Also! ALSO. Rona Ambrose for Kim Campbell Chair 2015! Who's with me? Though not likely, if there is an election called tomorrow.

Mulcair's misstep on the debates was huge, y/n? Regardless where you stand, emulating the guy you're poised to beat is not good strategy. Unless the alleged American "consultants" hired by the NDP really are Tea Party double agents. *removes tinfoil hat*

Feh. This is going to be The. Ugliest. Canadian. Election. Ever. And they used to be so entertaining!

but what are your thoughts on the superiority of the Westminster system

...it's a slightly less kleptocratic system than the rest? LOL.

No, seriously, elections here used to be really entertaining. Until they weren't. :(

Re: CANPOLI Whining goes hete

Sorry, thought you were the anon who threw a tantrum about how the American system was evil, or something

based on the tinfoil hat Tea Party stuff

Oh yeah? You got links for my reading entertainment? I vaguely remember the Brit anons saying Cameron was the antichrist or smth after their Tories got elected. (With a majority IIRC.) Was that the one?

Should add, I started the thread because it's rumoured they're going to call an election tomorrow.

Re: CANPOLI Whining goes hete

No, it was more recent than that. A (presumably Canadian) anon saying a lot of (primarily wrong and uninformed) shit about how awful the American federal system was, and also blaming a lot of the problems in Canada on it. Just a real weirdly paranoid outlook. Can't track the thread down - maybe a month ago.

Sounds like nonny has been reading too many CBC comments, then taking them seriously. They're hilariously bad. But the only entertainment to be had, in the midst of all this SRS BSNS shtick all five parties seem to be going with.

Oooh, I forgot to add, anyone else think it's likely we'll get a BQ Opposition again? That would be a trip!

Re: CANPOLI Whining goes hete

[cloud_riven]

I can't wait for the early call. By which I mean I can't wait to hate everything about it more. Unless there's an active push in my riding to vote anyone not conservative (I'm in Alberta, see?), this will be the first election I skip.

Re: CANPOLI Whining goes hete

[(Anonymous)]

Do you mean there's literally no one in your riding who's likely to beat the Tory? Sucks, man.

Re: CANPOLI Whining goes hete

[cloud_riven]

Odds are that it would be the NDP candidate, but I don't quite see us flipping orange the way we did on a federal level. It would be nice to be wrong though.

Hard to tell from the polls which provinces will flip, they're swinging back and forth almost daily. Most of the "Get out the vote" orgs are pushing for strategic voting, which. Isn't that what gave the Tories the majority the last time? Isn't that what gave the Tories in Britain the majority this time? Voters were trying to dump them, but split the left instead.

I personally think the NDP are going to lose way more seats in Quebec than they're expecting. Hopefully to the Bloc, though thanks to the nuttiness with the "Secular" Charter (note my sarcasm) the BQ is the lesser of two evils right now, IMO. The BQ did well by the country when they were the Opposition, even if they wanted to rip the country in half LOL. The Bloc was a good backstop to the Liberal majority getting too out of control, because even though they didn't have voting power to stop the Grits from doing whatever they wanted, Chretien and even Martin knew they had to make nice at some point because, hello, referendum much?
