Canadian General Election, Live Thread (UPDATE: Conservatives Win!)
Elections Canada ^ | N/A

Posted on 01/23/2006 8:03:44 AM PST by GreenLanternCorps

If JimRob, etc. approve this is the Live Thread for the Canadian General Election, on January 23rd, 2005.

We have a while to go before the returns start coming in, but I thought the thread needed to get up and running.

So Alberta and Saskatchewan are like the republican places in Canada and Manitoba is like 50/50?

Not exactly -- Alberta is too damn conservative to be "Republican." It's the kind of place where someone like Jesse Helms would come across as a flaming, homosexual Marxist.

Probably but I'm not against you. I used to have it in for Quebec as much as Ontario but I see that Quebecers at least have more brains and know what to do with outright CORRUPTION.

Figured as much. Thanks for the info. And you're right - Canada has to start somewhere and kicking Martin's tail up between his shoulder blades is an excellent start.

Darlundy :We use piece of paper and pencils and we make an x on them.

M203M4: Print an X in a circle. One candidate per line, HUGE circles, with clear divisions.

Thanks. . .simplicity works. . .and probably works the best, in the end. . .
