There doesn't seem to be a lot of campaigning out this way ATM

NDP’s Quebec lead over Liberals evaporates: poll

EKOS' poll earlier today has the Conservatives in the lead in Quebec. 28/27/24/17 iirc. CPC/LPC/NDP/Bloc.

That just can't be right though. Has to be that 19th poll out of 20 with the wacky numbers.

This isn't a good strategy. The NDP and the Liberals have two different approaches to governance, two different visions of the future. People should be voting for who they support, for who best represents their hope for our future.

On top of that Has strategic voting ever actually worked? It doesnt actually appeal to enough in the needed areas. I mean it appeals to many in Canada but they are distributed in a way that it doesnt actually impact those ridings...so I ask again....Has strategic voting ever actually made a difference?

Prime Minister’s staff vetted refugee applications, report says. Harper denies it

PMO's office has too much power.

Strategic voting is actually more likely to cause vote splitting actually

Seeing some news stories about the CPC that I know are BS...be aware the media seems to be publishing false stories now

You cannot make up the horrible stuff the Cons have been doing. It isnt one story, it is at least a dozen different ways they have been screwing us over.
