....What should we expect? What if Danny Boy's ABC campaign works across Canada (prairies exempted)? What if they carry this anything to prevent the Conservatives from a majority too far, and they get the Dion Liberals by mistake?
Think about it, seriously, for just one second. What if the lefties actually do prevent the Conservatives from even a minority, guess who we are stuck with....Dion! Now, the lefties might cheer, high fives all around between the four lefty parties, and then, they get to implement their platforms, in one of the most unstable global economies I can ever remember. Can you see the mess Canada would be?
Being lefties they will all band together to promote the "greater" good. So, what is their "greater" good? Combine their platforms together and what do you get?
Carbon credits against productive taxpaying businesses.
More funding for the arts.
Shutting down the only sector that is still showing some life (energy)
Shift to eco-friendly vehicles no one can afford (they will be unemployed).
Money to Europe to buy Kyoto credits.
Increasing the GST.
Getting rid of income splitting for seniors.
Pulling out of Afghanistan now.
De-funding our military.
Canceling much needed military equipment.
Free drugs for all.
Legalized prostitution.
Legalized marijuana.
Increased business taxes to pay for social programs.
Doubling childcare credits AND a Federal sponsored daycare.
Raising fuel prices this winter. (Hey it's not Alberta this time, saying let them freeze in the dark, it's the Liberal/NDP/Bloq/Green parties)
Protecting ALL animals, over humans.
Banning all guns.
Killing all development of the Arctic.
Negotiating with terrorists.
Repeat offenders getting out early...like the known sexual predator who abducted the little girl in Alberta this weekend.
....And a chicken in every pot, but no fuel to cook it!
If that doesn't scare you, when the economy is becoming more unstable, nothing ever will. Think about how fast our economy will tank. Unions will be looking for higher wages, especially the Ontario teacher's union and autoworkers, and forestry workers, and nurses, and every sector that is in trouble will have their hands out. Oh, and let's not forget about getting rid of poverty.
Remember the Rae surprise in Ontario? What if by some miracle we get a Dion surprise? Or heaven forbid, a Layton surprise because of strategic voting.
So, when you are sitting around your dinner tables eating your Thanksgiving feast, think hard about your vote, and what it means to the stability, even the continued existence of the Canada we all love. This is not some game, this is about the survival of Canada, and who is the best leader. This is not about cuts to the arts, this is about cuts to the very fabric of our country.
