Coming Election

  I listened to the debate over CBC radio 1 or 2, I am not sure. It was...stimulating, sure to say the least about it. Afterwords, I thought I would try the Vote Compass off CBC's website just for fun. Turns out the needle points Liberal for me. But does it really?
  I find it really hard to have a firm believe in any of the party's websites, because I really feel like they're all saying their piece so they can get in. High school student council all over again. Kidding, it's more important than that. Trust is a hard thing to place, even harder when you never actually meet the candidate and know who they are. All their websites look the same as well, I guess that just means politics and politicians have no originality.
  I'm not an expert on politics or democracy. There's the phrase, Go with the Evil you know, that comes to mind. I think I would like to try a new one. Honestly. A while ago, about two and a half weeks, I read this review in the 24 Hour News Paper criticizing Elizabeth May. It practically said, "nobody wants to hear it, May." The article was written by a Conservative writer (surprising?). The hilarious part about the writer's rant was that she was predicting May's speech, which outlined discontinuing use of nuclear energy. I agree with ending nuclear energy use. I believe Japan is turning out to be the next Chernobyl, so is that a bad suggestion? No. Are there alternatives? There has to be. There is no way that Nuclear is the one and only.
  Anyways, I'm getting off track. What I'm trying to say is, if I was to go off the debate alone, I still wouldn't have a decision. I feel like the debate was a poorly written drama. Harper is trying to play the viewers and audience, He was trying to be like Kennedy in the past, by addressing the camera as well as his adversary. Sadly, he can't portray the image. Meanwhile, the other party leaders don't have quite the solid ground they appear to promise. Either way, I am interested in seeing a new face for Canada. Yes, I am not a fan of Harper. I want somebody else to be in Parliament! I feel that he has a slimy way of lying to the public and has no agenda for Canada, other than his own personal means, which isn't democracy.

  Cross your fingers for Canada, people!
