Election Day

Jun 29, 2004 01:56


So yesterday was election day for me here in Canada.  Now I hate politics, but I am usually a responsible voter.  This election was the most ridiculous farce of an election ever.  I really didn't know who to vote for because, in my opinion, all the candidates were lacking in one area or another.  I won't bother to list the faults of each party because they are lengthy and not very interesting.  I just didn't feel that anyone deserved my vote, so I refused to go put in my ballot.

The results are in, and as predicted, the Liberals managed to retain their authority with a minority win.  This means that they'll need support from opposition such as the NDPs and maybe even The Bloc to govern.  I'm usually a Liberal supporter, so I suppose I'm pleased that the Liberals managed to scrape by, but I really think that this election has sent them a message.  Hopefully Paul Martin will keep his promises this time around.
