Jan 8, 2012 - That's first past the post for you. Anyways, the last person to get more than 50% of the vote was not a Liberal, but PC Brian Mulroney in 1984. Even then, it was barely 50%. The fact is proportional representation will mean no party will ever get power.

TheInfamousCanadian Says:

Jan 11, 2012 - Numbers dont apply to you do they? Theres only one conservative party, two left parties and we end up splitting the vote. Mr harper only got 40% of the vote

Jan 13, 2012 - Harper needs to be removed. Don't let Canada turn into a paranoid country of freaks like you know who

News flash - here in the real world of a global economy you have to remain competitive, big unions and govts that want to tax corps will cause them to move even more to other countries... Your pricing yourselves out of jobs.To all of you complaining about the election results it makes me laugh.

Mar 12, 2012 - Actually there's three left wind parties and an environmental centrist party. The Bloc may not think they're Canadians, but they are a left wing party in the Canadian parliament.

Mar 18, 2012 - Harper is great, North Americans in general don't realize how good they have it.

mapleleaf123456789 Says:

Mar 18, 2012 - @TheInfamousCanadian Wow, that means that only 40 percent of Canada doesn't live in a fantasy world with constant sunshine and rainbows where the government spoon feeds you everything you need and nobody has any hard feelings for anyone else. Also, Harper is great, just because he wants you to pay for your own things from time to time doesn't make him a dictator.

Mar 28, 2012 - Haroon Siddiqui seems like such an intelligent man. He understands the basic concepts on what's wrong, but with all due respect I don't believe he can see the forest for the trees. He covers a lot of the problems and then throws hands in the air and says "Now they have a deficit." I would like to hear explained why we are paying Interest to Banks at all. Are we not a Nation? Do we not have the ability to create money out of thin air? If so why in gods name the interest?

Apr 6, 2012 - Canada isn't really a large polluter. Qatar, Australia, the United States and the UAE are by far larger than Canada.

Alpinex105 Says:

Apr 6, 2012 - Of course they are also larger polluters. However Canadians are one of the top 15 CO2 polluters per capita and the seventh largest polluter in the world. Those nations may be higher, but that does not at all mean that Canada is not a huge contributor to greenhouse emissions.

haichtee Says:

Apr 12, 2012 - Don't worry uneducated red neck. Eventually a liberal government will be back to rescue a conservative mess like the deficit of mulroney which chretien and martin had to fix and now record deficit of Harper. Google it! . The problem us lefties have is harpers evangalist agenda of social conservatism/oppression. Harper has the most expensive government ever! he is not fiscally conservative, so before you gives us a economics 101 rhetoric look up his wild spending and toys he and his buddies like.

melloyello696 Says:

Apr 14, 2012 - Go ahead and call it black and white like that but how about I fill in the blanks for you... First off Cretien only cut the debt because the CTF was causing a massive poop storm to get spending under control... They did this by cutting federal transfers and breaking almost every promise they ever made. The libs are 100% responsible for the creation of hallway medicine (among other things). This left the provinces to make up the difference or cut services. Yet the same taxes were charged.

melloyello696 Says:

Apr 14, 2012 - Also as far as Harpers spending goes, perhaps you should look up 2008 global recession... Then look at which governments engaged in stimulus spending. Then ask yourself why he has spent so much. Its easy to just say something like he spends like a maniac, but you just look like a total clown if you don't include that in your "he spends too much" issues. Harper also does a good job at separating church and state... How many times has he said abortion is not up for debate.

melloyello696 Says:

Apr 14, 2012 - Also I don't see how "redneck" is an insult - if you look up the origin of "redneck" it means someone who works all day in the sun and has a sunburned neck. I am sure you can also tell by now that I am NOT uneducated, I just don't share the silly pipe dreams of the left. There is NO chance of a liberal govt coming into power any time soon - if anything the conservatives will gain more strength. PS: Thank you for the highly amusing post, it gave me a good chuckle.

May 24, 2012 - You're incredibly ill informed and completely indoctrinated into believing what the right pulls out their ass. You pride yourself off the competition you create and have complete disregard for the residual effects of your system. You probably see poor people as impediments to king capitalism. It makes me sick to see people with such lack of compassion for their fellow countrymen, and only see life as get job get money die and never question the free market. You sir, can eat a big fat dick.

thebootywarrior3 Says:

May 24, 2012 - A liberal government is not a pipe dream, it only seems that way because ill informed people like yourselves believe that to work all day and only care for yourself is just. You have completely bought into the hard working right's bullshit mentality. I feel painfully sorry for you because you see change as infeasible and lead a trivial life that is based off of working long hours every day to feed rich CEO's and Republicans bank accounts then see liberals as misguided.

melloyello696 Says:

May 24, 2012 - Im ill informed???? You have only thrown insults and not provided any substance. Then you have resorted to name calling... That to me indicates that you don't have anything informative to say. Entitlement will kill our economy - pretty easy to see that when you look at Europe. I think you are getting compassion confused with handouts as well. I also expect the "rich CEO" crap as well from your kind... I just want to say this. STOP CLAIMING TO BE REPRESENTING THE 99%!!!!!! YOU DONT!!!!!!!

thebootywarrior3 Says:

May 25, 2012 - What I took from your statement was little, due to it's poor structure, was you said entitlement will kill our economy. This obviously is not true for Sweden which currently has a flourishing economy, "entitlement programs", and last time I checked is part of Europe. And what of Germany, you base all of your decisions off propaganda laden news about Greece I'm guessing and take no time to make informed decisions by yourself. Also don't say our economy because obviously your in it for yourself.
