Yes, she called herself a “lifelong liberal” just how meatless mondays flexitarians call themselves “vegans”.

Yes.

I didn’t vote at the last federal election. I wouldn’t have voted for a Conservative, but I was extremely disappointed by both my Liberal and NDP candidates.

Right now my MP is the Greenpeace militant that is now a spokesperson for the oil companies, also supposedly the environment minister.

Even if they protest and don’t want it, natives are gonna have a pipeline through their land. But no clean water.

Also, rail worker? Get back to work. Postal worker? Get back to work! Natives protesting? Get back in your reservation!

That’s all very inspiring to vote for the Liberals. (/s)

I know the Conservatives would have done the same, and then some. I know it’s still preferable to have Liberals in power, even with their despicable hypocrisy. Quite frankly I would prefer NDP policies but they are pretty marginalized on the federal level.

It’s just very difficult to find the motivation to vote for any of the candidates in my riding.

Depending on the polls for my riding I may go vote ABC. But since I’m on the Plateau (Laurier Ste-Marie) in Montréal, if anything, Steven Guilbault is going to be replaced by a Bloc or NDP candidate. There’s never been a Conservative elected in my riding since its been created in 1988. It’s the riding of Gilles Duceppe after all. I don’t know. It’s really hard to go past my apathy and cynicism since the last couple of elections.
