Living in Quebec I don’t much care about the Ontario election, but from what I’ve followed of it I know I’d be pretty disappointed at the lack of a real conservative platform to vote for. I notice I’m not alone, here’s John Robson’s opinion:
Then there’s John Tory. We did not need another demonstration that a sophisticatedly amorphous Red Tory approach is as futile in political as in policy terms. We got one anyway. Then he crumpled on his only principle-like position. Thanks for coming out. Now go away.
He concludes the best option is to find the least objectionable marginal candidate and vote for him. If you have a chance to vote for a Libertarian, Freedom Party or Family Coalition Party candidate this might be a good opportunity to park your vote there until there’s a real conservative option.
Speaking of small parties, Kateland at the Last Amazon shares the low opinion of current conservative candidates and opts for an albino candidate standing for The Party for People with Special Needs. Make sense to me.
And as for the referendum on the Mixed Member Proportional representation, it would be worth going to vote just to bury this dumb idea. There’s nothing wrong with our electoral system in my opinion, the problem is with the lousy candidates we elect. Funny enough, John Robson says exactly that, too:
Ontario is slated to hold a “historic” referendum this October on whether to discard our centuries-old system of electing representatives in favour of something called MMP or “mixed member proportional.” Just say No. It’s a bad solution to the wrong problem.
Bruce points out a video on Ontario’s health care system. I’m not sure there’s any real reform of the health system on offer in this election, but the video is interesting nonetheless.
Drop your opinion/links on the Ontario election and referendum in the comments.
A better acceptance speech for that scumsucking liberal vermin:
“Thanks a lot suckers! Now I get another four years giving you all the shaft and acting like the creep I accused all of my opponents of being! You guys are so dumb you’ll believe anything 🙂 Ha Ha! You loose Ontario!”
The sad part is that the PC’s would have had a cake walk if Tory wasn’t such a retard.
Looks like somebody has a boycrush on one of the more attractive (physically) MPPs…but please tell me you didn’t graduate from any sort of writing program, ok? Post-adolescent palmsweat aside, unless your “blog” is satire, you should probably take (or re-take) elementary writing.
James;
If you’d like, please leave comments on my blog and explain my writing errors.
Same goes for most of you – I think we should (try to) take our discussion there out of respect to Kate and this blog. Thanks!!
Let me try again: my blog here to continue discussion.
Thanks. If that doesn’t work, click on SVC Alumnus and that’ll take you there. Thanks again!
“I have seen Sandra Pupatello in action. She is a courageous leader who stood up to the wasteful spending of the PCs and also the cronyism plus the Magna budget.”
Too bad she didn’t stand up to the wasteful spending in her own Liberal party. Let’s see what she does for the city of Windsor on the Greenlink plan that the city favours.
SVC. I read your blog. I find it a rather puerile
attempt to elevate Ms. Pupatello to some kind of sainthood. As long as you’re not stalking her, I suppose it is all harmless. Nevertheless if I was her, I’d be keeping an eye out. In all seriousness, it is somewhat beyond the pale.
“The people of this province need to be told what his party really is, over and over – mean-spirited ideologues who hang out with rich people and want to privatize everything”
Yeha ..I got a laugh from this lefty encryted spinning…in left code “meann/meanspirtited/Meanness” is lib code for being cautious with taxpayer’s money…having empathy with tax burdened productive middle class people in the private sector who are the weath engine the Left plunder to build political empires with public sector unions.
Being “mean” means trimming non value added public sector union payrolss and putting the money into health or pack to the tax payer.
Ontario Liberals are completely all about robbing the revenue stream to pay union payroll blackmail and expenad public sector jobs thus creating reliant voter bases.
Don’t give me any BS about “meanness” when the left has robbed and pillaged the private middle class to build a public sector voter loyalty.
Harris was a pussy compared to what THIS libertarian would do if I was given the reins.
Ontraio public service would be reduced by 2/3s right across the board
ratexpletive, I find you rather purile so spare me the lectures, as Sandra herself appreciates what I do and what I have done. Obviously, no stalking invovled – I would be dead long, long ago if I was. Scuttlebutt is Sandra packs heat and leads a posse.
KP and WL Mackenzie Redux – I hear ya. One reason I am a conservative. If not for my 6 years of knowing Sandra and seeing Torytube.ca, I’d root for the Tories.
My blog, where we can continue the discussion, supports Rudy Giuliani too!
Stick around, SVC Alumnus, as a closet Liberal you’ll fit in perfectly here at SDA.
*Sneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer*
Poor suckers – No Sympathy from me. You richly deserve what you ask for. Hey here’s a news flash for all you Liebranos in Toronto – toss the Lemming costume and become an informed free thinker by tuning out CTV Liberal-Vision and the Communist Broadcasting Cesspool. You are the laughing stock of Canada.
I voted for the PCs and Tory in the advance poll and if this election turns out as I expect it will, this provincial election will likely be my last.
Looks like another young creep from the East is Alberta bound.
Interesting getting election advice from Libs who have had40 year dry spells…If John Tory wants to know how to win big in Ontraio he needs to talk to Danny Williams…NOT Warren ( red shorts/yeast infection) Kinsella.
SANDRA PUPATELLO WINS!!!!!!!!!!
NEANER, NEANER, NEANER!
John Tory didn’t get a seat and the Ontario PCs have lost.
My thoughts on why, quoting Rescuing Canada’s Right.
right wing freaks should leave ontario
please
SVC- While I’m pleased for you that the object of your obsession was re-elected, could you please tell me what in the world “Neaner,Neaner,Neaner”
is supposed to mean?
