I was leaning towards the conservatives but I will be voting Green. I can't vote liberal based on the principal that they have wasted so much money and are corrupt giving there buddies handouts for providing 0 services and you can't believe a word Martin says. Because of these scandels I sometimes feel like I am living in a banana republic. The conservatives have a great platform except there is a few big issues I don't see eye to eye with. Harper is a good leader but has some scary people in is party that could influence decisions much like what happened to Bush. The NDP do not have a great platform, and their leader is a motor mouth, and I worry that there spend, spend, policy could be very bad. The provinces have had this big socialist type of government proved that the policies don't work well if there isn't a limit on spending. The Bloc isn't worth mentioning as it is a separatist party that wants to give everything to Quebec. Quebec gets more than its share already. The Green party isn't well known and has a smaller number of old baby boomer farts in it compared to other parties that have been calling the shots for years. They have a good platform but they don't have the funds for campaigning. So by voting for them I will hopefully give them enough support to receive party status and provide an alternative for the future. It will be a minority government so it could be good in that MP's will have to actually work for there constituents, instead of following the party lead and sucking up to the leader all the time, as well cooperation with other parties may be required. Downside is nothing may ever get done if they can't work together.
