Re: OT: Canadian Politics

last thing I want tonight is the Liberal in my riding to squeak out a win. 46.9% to 44.7% for the CPC with 108 of 217 reported

Re: OT: Canadian Politics

Dear Mr. Harper,


I live in BC with my husband and two little girls. I grew up in Calgary and have many friends and family members there. I’m white and in my early 40s. One of us is a stay at home parent, so we benefit 100% from the direct deposits in lieu of a national childcare program. We also benefit 100% from income splitting. And we can afford to take advantage of the increased allowance in our TFSAs.


In other words, we’re the picture of the family who benefits the most from your economic policies.

But we’re not voting Conservative on October 19th.


You see, you’ve misjudged us. We enjoy our standard of living, we work hard for it but it’s not the only thing that matters to us.


You assume we don’t care about our first nations neighbours, or Canadians trying to bring their family members here from war torn countries. That we don’t care about less fortunate Canadians, our veterans, or scientists. You think we don’t mind that to save a few bucks and balance the books we axed the census, dumped decades of research from our libraries, cut funding to CBC, underspent our budgets in important departments and closed coast guard stations. You figure we no longer want our lakes and rivers protected and that we don’t understand that climate change is a far greater risk to our way of life than Barbaric Cultural Practices.


You’ve underestimated us.

On October 19, we’re not voting for our bank balance. We’re voting for change because we want the caring Canada of our youth back. The Canada that supported our single mothers that gave us the opportunity to succeed in the first place.

Re: OT: Canadian Politics

The Liberals have won seven seats in Ottawa, with Catherine McKenna defeating the NDP's Paul Dewar, Andrew Leslie defeating Royal Galipeau in Orléans, Anita Vandenbeld winning in John Baird's old riding of Ottawa West-Nepean, Karen McCrimmon winning Kanata-Carleton and Chandra Arya defeating Andy Wang in the Nepean riding.
Liberal incumbents David McGuinty in Ottawa South and Mauril Bélanger in Ottawa-Vanier also retained their seats.
Poilievre was the only Conservative to win his seat — Carleton — in Ottawa.
