Anti-fracking protesters in NB protecting the environment.

Far too many of these people are violent, nasty, and stupid.

More and more people are against it and the reason is underground water may
pose a problem if its not clean. There is more than one method of extracting it
so I am not outright opposed but fresh water concerns are valid unless proven
otherwise.
Mulcair is against it for a couple of reasons one its excellent politics in the east for
him. In Quebec and New Brunswick not to mention Nova Scotia there is considerable
opposition. If he is representing people in his riding and they are opposed he should
be right? Oh I forgot that only works in Western Canada where the old Reform folks
are black and white for and against. This is the same thing only in reverse in eastern
Canada.
As I said I am not altogether against it depending on the method used.

Probably no one but then don't confuse people with facts you just upset them
I thought I would get your day off to a great start. Have a glass of water and
think about it. Perception has more value than truth. Mulcair is doing exactly
what the others do, Mulcair is against fracking in NB and Harper is for the
LNG knowing the company is not suitable for the job and the people don't want
it. Not to mention the NG won't make any money for a long time. BC will get
another boondoggle like the Coal deal that cost us money in the long run many
years ago.

First of all I don't agree we should stop fracking altogether but we should be mindful
of what the water source serves and act accordingly. At the same time I don't think
Mulcair is a commie either far from it. I see him actually centering the party. Some
even say he's moving it slightly right. The problem with political parties is this.

Tories people didn't expect this government to go as far to the right as it has and the
Tories are losing support because of it.

NDP A few years ago the NDP didn't know who they were let alone Canadians knowing.
Agree with them or not at least they have some direction now they didn't have

Liberal They are now the party wondering what their direction is and for what purpose they
exist. Instead of coming up with serious direction they have adopted a face on a
poster approach know this guy vote for him.
not much beyond that, the hell of it is it is working to some degree.

Green They are there with a whole lot of ideas that won't work in our society

In short Canadians prefer a dogs breakfast approach to their politics and we know that because
we vote for them
