Blackface, dual citizenship, abortion – yes or no, homophobia… what next?
Are there really any serious issues – children, education, health, international affairs, trade, the environment ??

“The Conservative Party of Canada announced Friday afternoon that Heather Leung would no longer be representing the party in the riding of Burnaby North-Seymour. In announcing the change, the party wrote:
“Recent media reports have brought to light offensive comments made by Ms. Leung saying ‘homosexuals recruit’ children, and describing the sexual orientation of the LGBTQ community as ‘perverted.’ There is no tolerance in the Conservative Party for those types of offensive comments.”

Trudeau has lost his sizzle, Sheer has no stage presence, May looks and appears weak and fragile, and Singh is too bland, all in all a very boring election that I believe is going to be a low turnout come election time resulting in a minority government.

Have to agree with you Dick, unless you are prudent with our hard earned tax dollars there will be no respect from me for any of our wanna be leaders

Lately what I seem to be hearing from other seniors I speak with is: “I haven’t got a clue who to vote for!”…thanks in part to the media muddying the waters. So…either this election will have a landslide of voters… OR… it will be the worst turnout on record.
Publisher: Agree. The media has thrown to much mud and not looked for or explained the differences between parties. But to be fair if the NDP or the Greens have the best policies and positions they still will not be in government. Money works, advertising works, big party organizations work.
The race is tight – those confused might not vote. But to me the vast majority of Canadians knew who to vote for prior to the 4 year term ending. I could be wrong. Have been before.
Google CBC poll tracker – best look into the machines that run the elections.

How about getting rid of the deficit and getting their fiscal house in order !
