Kanadian Korner

[Bryan]

I thought since there are a small handful of Canadians on the board that we might want to have our own venue for political chatterings.

Did anyone else notice during last night's leadership debate that Jack Layton is turning into Col. Tigh? Same accent, same authoritative, slightly frightening demeanour?

As a displaced Canadian, I am curious as to how you (and others) think the Green Party leader did in the debates (was she in both the French and English)?

I misread this title as Kardashian Korner

Sorry Emily. This is much less sexy.

Elizabeth May was in both the English and French debates. I didn't see the French one, but she did great in the English one. She (like Gilles Duceppe) had pretty much nothing to lose, so she could just do and say whatever she wanted. She did very well at calling Harper out and challenging his presentation of the facts.

Even though I still think Harper will win, I actually felt pretty hopeful when I saw that everyone else was unanimous in wanting to make environmental issues more central.

Its so frustrating that there are 3 major Left wing parties and one Right Wing.

I had to turn the debate off after a while.  Jack Layton was making me mad with his zingers, and Stephan Harper was so callous that I wanted to puke.

The conservatives are going to win for no good reason and it sucks.

This election makes me grateful I can't vote.

Sorry Emily. This is much less sexy.

And has a much less sumptuous bottom.

This site provides riding-by-riding analyses that can help with strategical voting. Also, it's pretty interesting.

I keep reading this subject line as "Kardashian Korner" and getting let down.

Wow, that's embarrassing.  I've got no business being on this thread anyway.  Carry on!  I'll show myself the door.

My favorite charismatic Canadian demagogue, Nfld Premiere Danny Williams is projecting his Newfoundlander rage right at Harper by heading up a similar Anything But Conservative campaign.

That would be fun. I'm not in Toronto, but get there pretty often. I would consider making the trip up for an occasion like this.

Yeah I wonder if we could take over a small bar and listen live.  Perhaps we could call in to the show.
