[QUOTE="Tourmax, post: 189912, member: 5304"] Oh wait, you probably meant “liberal gov’t” change. I missed that one first time around. ;) To that I agree. But, PC is not the party for Atlantic Canada. Nor are the Greens, NDP, etc. Theres only one time that the Atlantic provinces even enter an “Ottawa politician‘s” mind and thats election night. Once thats done, we’re shuffled back into the closet, forgotten about and left to struggle to survive until the next election cycle. Then it’s sunshine and lollipops again, until the day after the election and back i to the dark closet. And just like that, I’m back to my “they all suck equally” statement. Politics in Canada has just become a mess. There’s not one party worth voting for. It’s pretty much become nothing more than a popularity contest, like voting for student council in high school. Seems important, but it really doesn’t change a damned thing. Being a popularity contest is how we end up with things like a drama teacher as PM and that gawd awful mess they have going on below the 49th. Lets also not forget places like Ukraine, where the president (or is he a prime minister? Meh, whatever) was elected because he played a president on one of their tv dramas. It’s like people have lost their common sense completely, all across the globe. Guess old regan started off the “hollywood/politician” mess. Then Jesse Ventura, schwatzenegger, and on and on. its just insane who the people elect these days. Like the selfie loving sock model we have now. Elections, for me, have become an exercise in choosing the lesser of all evils...and failing every time as the evils are all pretty much the same. [/QUOTE]
