I know how that feels. I was in his riding previously. Be that defiant vote!
Advance polls are 7-10 days before the election (F-M) or you can vote at an Elections Canada office once the election is called if you don't want to wait for the polling stations. If you want to vote by mail there are different rules whether you're here or away.
I was in his riding too.
Isn't he in danger of losing his seat? Nothing would please me more.
I feel like many green party voters would be shocked to find out the party is not as "left-wing" as they think, that they would be even to the right of the NDP on any issues that does not involve the environment.
This is what I'm praying for.
Normally don't go for them but can't take any chances this election, voting Lib.
Yah, I agree. I think there's still a lot of wiggle room for all parties during campaign season. So we'll see what happens.
In other news, when your predecessor thinks you're full of shit
I have no idea, I don't know what the latest numbers is for him or the last results. Doesn't he cover Manotick? It's nothing but rich people with water front property there so I think it's staying CPC.

I think their environment plan is basically set a bunch of targets and incentives and let the free market solve it.
I hate that term. I wish it could be called the BS it really is.
That's paying off quite well for them
Potential to win a majority with fewer votes and <33%

Careful what you wish for. In Canada 30% is Majority territory depending on how the vote splits. Conservatives can still win without a plurality of the vote and when they eventually do (and it is eventually) you'll be wishing we had an electoral system that doesn't let the Conservatives win a Majority Government with only 30% of the vote.
Same. The threat of Scheer is too much and my riding is currently Liberal. I feel the Cons have a lot of ammo against the incumbent though (Iqra Khalid)...
Agreed. No matter what party you support, I think we can all agree no one should have 100% control of the Government with only 30% of the votes.
Well, they're turning on each other now: Ambrose disagrees with Scheer's assertion that Trudeau caved to Trump on NAFTA ()
The fake news facebook types seem to prefer the peoples party from what i've seen. Like the good old days of the Reform party securing Liberal victory.
That's awesome. Shit has gotten out of hand and the government needs to step in harder than whatever the CRTC pretends to do.
I'm pretty sure my riding is LPC safe. ;)
(My MP is Chrystia Freeland)
With that said, I really dislike the CPC slogan, It comes off as '*k others, be selfish' to me. =|

Just flashing this image up everyday on twitter will guarantee a liberal win. Thank you Paul Wells/Macleans.
You lucky duck. I'm in the suburbs so I'm not really sure. But I share the same MP as this local music star.
Added the slogan for the "P"PC.
Also if you think i'm "as biased as it comes", you must be new here.
I'm not going to pretend that what the CPC is doing, following the global trend of embracing right-wing demagoguery, is normal just to be "fair and balanced". I have my issues with the other major parties but they do not compare to the CPC. The only thing I regret in the OP that I might change is the part about the Bloc because, as amusing as the party's current predicament may be, I have zero tolerance for separatist sentiments from the provinces, be it Quebec or the current flames that Kenney is currently stoking in Alberta.

I mean, I'm glad it looks like Ford fucked em but all that matters is voting day. So I'll never think it's a done deal.
Has anyone gotten a text from Conservative Party asking whether they can "count" on you to vote for them?
Anyway, I disliked how SNC Lavalin turned out and there is no excusing it. And yet I must vote Liberal in our current isolationist and tumultuous times.
I remember reading an article from CBC mentioning this popping up in Nova Scotia and the party leader said that it was no paid for by him. So, does anyone know whether we are being lied to or getting fucked by some external power's disinformation campaign?

PPC's unofficial slogan :
"Say no to mass immigration"

I wouldn't trust anything Maxime Bernier says on this. Even if we give him the benefit of the doubt, these are his actual thoughts, policies and what he wants. He's pretty clear about that and has been clear for years.
I did back in June, I live in Alberta
Hi, it's Sarah from the Conservative Party. Can the Conservative Party count on your support in the next federal election? Reply: Yes No
Thanks.
YES! Sinister Sarah texted me too! I got the the text on Aug 15, here in St. John's.
The "official" story right now is that True North Strong and Free Advertising Corp, a third party advertising firm registered back in 2016, did it of their own volition, but the head of the advertising firm is the CEO of a number of mining companies who has done fundraising for Bernier in the past due to his support for their mining plans in Northern Ontario.
They're now holding the stance that they never actually "approved" the billboard and somehow it slipped through, and Bernier, while maintaining he still had nothing to do with it, still supports the sentiment.
So it's very likely a rich mining executive who decided to stoke anti-immigration sentiment in order to shore up support from the politician who's going to help them rape the land for resources, did not expect nearly the amount of blowback they got and are trying to backtrack.
Don't believe any of his campaign's backpedalling.
Bernier leads a party of hate.
Edit: I should have refreshed the page, whoops.
