Hey I'd prefer a con minority.

This way we can get a Lib-NDP coalition and shut them out for good.

Yeah, we know.....nothing the Justin believers love more than the idea of one-party rule.

Anyhow, ever hear of Europe? You know, Greece, France, Spain, Italy......the social Democratic Europe?

It is a madhouse of fiscal insanity.

That is what Idiot Bot as PM, backed by the Angry Socialist would do to this country.

Good Lord, Harper isn't nearly tough enough, and you want Justin dealing with Putin?

No one gives a crap about Russia, Islam or Ebola.

The Cons wouldn't get what they want in a minority government anyway.

A coalition just creates a binding agreement between the other two parties on certain bills.

Cons will be getting what they want, they are majority bound

Minority gvts generally get next to nothing accomplished... Too many side deals and politicking that brings things to a standstill.

He's got a point. With Prime Minister Trudeau II who would we send to international conferences to not shake Putin's hand?

.

Defiance counts.

Speaking truth to power counts.

Leading by example counts.

Being a narcissistic pretty boy relativist does not count.

You are making me kind of curious! How would a Lib-N.D.P. coalition be an improvement on what we have? How much do you think they would reduce our taxes? How would business be able to operate?

One is far left the other is extreme left. MF kind of floats between the two.

You'll get even the best of governments helping out some businesses unfortunately.

IF Harper was actually helping the O&G industries we would have already built pipelines to both coasts instead of being bogged down in endless and meaningless consultations and studies.

Ummmm, exactly what aren't critical natural resources in Canada?

Ontario and Quebec freeloaders.

Somebody had to protect those brooms.
Yeah, Justin Trudeau would have tied on his cape and had three shots bounce off his chest before subduing the shooter with a strong, manly, Canadian right hook to the jaw.

If Mr. Harper really did hide in a broom closet, my respect for him just rose more. There are two reasons you should hide if you can, or get as small and low as possible if you can't hide, in an active shooter situation:

1. You ain't bulletproof.

2. The security guys would really appreciate it if you stayed out of their line of fire and didn't distract them with your hysterics or heroics (those two being the same thing in these situations).

To hell with your fantasies of heroism, and to hell with your "dignity." If you ever find yourself in an active shooter situation, get into a broom closet, or under a desk, or behind a counter. If those options aren't available, get down on the floor and curl up against a wall. This vastly improves your chances of living.

(That's a generic "you," Cannuck, not you personally.)

I love it when pansies that have never been in so much as a school yard shoving match start criticizing the actions of those under threat of death.

Colpy! You being pummeled in the school yard helps explain your gun fetish... thanks for the insight.
protect the closet! Protect the closet! Women, the elderly and quadriplegic MPs to the front!
