I wish it were possible.
Anyways, so the elections are coming up, and Canada once again decides on who will lead our country. For me, I have no clue on who to vote for, but I am making that decision on election day.
I find it ridiculous that some people are voting Conservative to punish the “corrupt” Liberals, or to vote Liberals just to keep the “Hidden Agenda” Conservatives out of power. Why don’t people just vote for what the parties have to offer, I know its very difficult for many to really trust what the politicians are saying, cause in the end, any political party that has a majority governemnt can do whatever the hell they want to for the next several years. Some people are so stuck down in allegiances, and preconcieved beliefs of the parties that they are unwilling to really sum up all the parties and make a decision based on what is best for themselves, and what could be best for other Canadians.
Sometimes people vote out of spite because of what the political parites have done.
Many fear more under the table dealings with the Liberals, but many also fear the Conservatives tax-cuts which would lead to a major decline in social spending, with the NDP, they could raise taxes substantially, which could cripple the economy, and for the Bloc, well they are only there for one thing, that is separation for those who are out of the loop. Every party has a good and a bad, but just because you are going to vote else where to punish a party, or to keep a party out of power means that you aren’t really taking into consideration what these parties have to offer us, and once all the celebrations are over, and everything goes back to normal, the people will realize the repercussions of their hasty actions in supporting a party whom they know nothing about.
So the message is really take a good look at the party which you are supporting, and don’t vote just because you want to teach the Liberals a lesson, or keep the hidden agenda Conservatives out of power.
Because your actions could affect the lives of Canadians all across the country, and if things go bad, then don’t blame others, blame yourself.
*BTW I am not pointing at all Canadians, some people are just voting the way they are because their values match up with certain parties. I’m pointing at those who have just hastily made their voting decision.
Other Things…
The day there was no friction…
No, friction isn’t gone, but almost, like the one episode of the Magic School Bus where they went to the baseball field in the book where there was no friction. Yeah today was kinda like that. All I saw from morn to eve were people slipping and sliding, and falling on the ground, it was great fun to get around.
