Yea, you think about it and you can see what angle there obviously taking, but then you ask yourself. Do they know how to run a country?
Hey mister Prime Minister did you get those reports done? -"aaah shit, I TOTALY forgot, sorry dude..Oh It's almost 4:20!"

Honestly, I think alot of us canadian's are stuck between Green and NDP. But if you think about Green party doesn't really know how to run a country to well..There goals and promises sound good, but other than that there not to accountable. which really only leaves NDP, they've got a good leader, Mr.Layton seem's the most un-dodgy. They're down for the cause, and they don't want to privatize (well here in Sask. anyway)
I say vote NDP! it's time for a change

Layton's a good guy. I remember him from my activist days with Toronto's homeless problem. A truly committed man. Nevertheless, I'm voting Green. I'm a fringy and have to represent myself politically. I was gonna run for pot party, but my dad would go ballistic seeing our last name and signs that say "vote for your lifestyle. vote weed" all over the area.

I'm voting NDP for sure. I think Green is a throwaway vote. Sure they may reflect a lot of good ideas but they have absolutely no chance of winning. I think NDP is going to be very close this election. I watched the televised debates too and I think Layton is the only one without his head up his ass.

Well, I think that you should vote in what you believe in. I know they don't have a chance, but I'm still going to vote green. Never really liked strategic voting.
Anyways, what's really important is that everyone that can vote, get out and votes. Last election, over 8 million Canadians that could of voted, didn't The turn out was really low among young adults
So, all you young Canadian on this board that are old enough to vote...get out and vote tomorrow.

I'm voting ndp.
My stepdad's probably going to vote for the liberals because the damn conservatives are gaining popularity... damn, what a waste of a vote. I'm going to stick with things and vote for ndp. I want fucking change in this country. I'll be damned if the conservatives win the election. Grr.

Excellent
A friend of mine just sent me this little bit of humour. It's a breakdown of the major parties:
Liberals - the generic, everyone is happy party. Corruption is a given. Conversatives - left of the democrats in the US. For example, they want publically funded healthcare with private contractors. That's considered radical. Viewed by many as American mouthwhores. NDP - socialists in every way they can be Bloc - socialist in some ways, right wing in others. Don't know as much about them because a) I don't care and b) I'm not in Quebec and can't vote for them.

voted NDP, and I also found out that you can give a 'vote of no confidence' if you think all of the candidates stink. So your vote still is counted but you didn't actually vote for anybody.
