Who is watching the Canadian Prime Ministerial debate tonight?

[broneck]

Is anyone else watching this? Am I really showing my Canadianness here? There are other Canadians on here...

Harper's getting ganged up on but Harper's a slimy douchebag with no platform.

Anyone?

^canada has a prime minister? I thought they eliminated the position after trudeau.

[HBlack]

if they ban handguns before i can get my restricted license i'm going to be annoyed

that's about as closely as i've been following

[16steps]

what is this canada you speak of?

[broneck]

Certainly more important than say...health care.

Kunk - no, that's just the last time the world paid attention

[kunk75]

^ oh. well, if a candidate proposed to rename it the Ice Planet Canadia, or at least Canadia, I'd vote for them because that sounds cool as fuck.

[mspark]

thats true. i cant remember any other leader after Trudeau.

I AM THE WORLD.

[HBlack]

nothing but snarkiness from you clopek

[broneck]

do you need the handgun to protect yourself from those pesky homosexuals?

[HBlack]

i'm homo friendly (no homo)

as is my girlfriend, which i assume you're referencing from a while ago

but oh well nevermind

[U MAD]

I'm spoiling my ballot.

[broneck]

Dion is really asserting himself as an intelligent and rational actor, and overcoming the stupid fucking caricature that the conservatives have been ramming down our throats for the past 6 months. the "green shift" actually makes reasonable sense if you actually take the time to understand it.

I'm watching the American one. Has anyone legalized weed yet?

no , the ndp is firing potheads actually.

I doubt I will vote as I don't follow politics, I should though, just seems like a lot of work listening to what they will do and them not do it. If I do Liberal is probably what I will do.

I like Jack Laytons mustache though, hes been NDP leader for as long as I can remember.

My friend also told me to vote Liberal and tried to explain things to me but I didn't listen.

interestingly, the canadian debate layout is infinitely more entertaining than the states. 5 people yelling at each other around a table.

mogli - please vote.

actually, cinderella and i were discussing tonight how god damn trashy canadian politics are compared to american. they address each other so politely in US debates, but in canada it's all bashbashbash, and no one ever really says anything.

[broneck]

i didn't say classier

that being said, harper is easily the trashiest. i actually just saw him drink a glass of water to avoid answering a question straight.

My view is if I don't know who or what I am voting for then it would be irresponsible to just randomly pick, I'm watching the debate right now the 2 conservatives started arguing haha I love Canada.

Edit: lol he did

"I wont raise taxes"

"you wont raise taxes?"

*drinks*"I wont raise taxes"

haha

[2000dB]

Im not watching that shit because who wants to look at harper and dion, but I served justin trudeau a sandwich while he was stalking ducep to steal some of his airtime.

[Vs Toto]

don't get me started on this. and that pointless registration, bahhh!

oh god <333333333

edited for extra incredulity.

I love how that women grills the hell out of Harper

[broneck]

i love (not really) that the most intelligent person at the table was the person with the wackiest platform that is the furthest from parliament

[mrip]

im voting for mapel syrup

[gramps]

This is the first time in my (admittedly short) voting life that I have been conflicted about my vote. I happen to live in Bob Rae's riding, and putting aside party loyalties I think he's the most lucid figure in Canadian politics right now. So, I've got some thinking to do.

[broneck]

i was considering voting for Jack Layton based on his mustache, and also his no nonsense attitude. but lets be real...if he has gramps' vote, he has my vote.

edit - just saw your post. that's a toughie. that speech he gave was pretty fantastic.

[U MAD]

the NDP called me the other day and were like "Stephen Harper sucks Liberal Party sucks NDP is the only party with the power to stop them, can I count on your support?" and I was like "never call me again communist" and hung up.
