The Liberals would welcome a poll. They're ready to go to bat with warning Ontario the Conservatives are dangerous since letting Western Canada have a foot in the door means the end of the Ontario way of life. Looks like the election will probably be after Christmas or sometime after the New Year.

If they can't get Ontario to ever vote for them, the entire election exercise is a waste of time and taxpayers' money. The Liberals are going to make exactly that point on the campaign trail, that there was no reason to force this election and they're going to ask voters to punish the opposition. Canadians will probably oblige, except in Quebec, where the Liberals look set to be shut out once again by the Bloc Quebecois.

I don't understand why any conservative Canadian would want anything less. It would shift the rest of Canada way the hell to the Right (perhaps far enough that they'll be back in the realm of sanity) and if Quebec wants to float down the Franco-Lefty bidet, let it. It will serve as a good example to the rest of Canada of what not to do.

Unfortunately the sappy Canadians UP here will vote the Liberals back in for another 4-5 years...
They NEVER GO AWAY......
To: William Creel
They've tried that already and it was a disaster. The Liberals were in power ever since.

and Alberta! No welcome Alberta with open arms to the US. The canucks can have either Maine or Vermont. That way we don't have to change the flag.

The Conservatives need to win in Ontario. It is Key. The Bloc takes away votes from the Liberals in Qc given the sponsorship fiasco. The Bloc is a result of a failed attempt to ammend the constitution to accomodate Qc the last time the Conservatives were in the majority. Since then, the Bloc has inevitably drifted to the Left given that it takes it's marching orders from the Party Quebecois. The key is Ontario.

I know. The country is regionally polarized and Ontario feels that if they give the Conservatives a mandate, they believe that they will pay a price as influence inevitably flows west. The Liberals have been playing this canard for 30 years, It has worked.

Ontario voted in Mike Harris for two terms...conservative. Well, as conservative as they get up here.
All we will hear if the election comes about is that the conservatives want to join Canada up with America and join the war. They will cash in on the anti-American, anti-Bush feelings that the media has created for them.
I hold out no hope for this country going conservative...but will be more than happy to eat crow if it does!
To: F14 Pilot
Request to Canadian (or Canada-knowledgeable) FReepers: I know that the terms Liberal and Conservative, in Canada, don't mean the same as in the USA. I'm not too clear on the distinctions; enlighten us, please? Thanks, eh.
