For You Canadians: Are we next?

We gotta keep voting Liberals man. For those of you who thinks this can't happen in Canada, think again. All it takes is for a few religious douchebags to get majority and start forcing 'morality' down our throats. The US would most likely get this law challenged at some point. If the same thing happened in Canada, I don't think we would have a big enough voice (enough people to care) to do anything.
If it does happen it would be catastophic for me [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Ignorant statement IMO. You want to vote in another Liberal government that steals millions of taxpayer dollars to fund it's own party, and then spends millions more on various advertising campaigns trying to brainwash you into agreeing with them on every stance.

The Conservative government is what it's name says it is in Canada (Conservative). It's more conservative in its spending and taxing then the liberals. It is not geared toward forcing morality down your throat anymore than the Liberal party is geared toward forcing you to attend a gay rights parade.

IMO the Liberals would be more likely to start taxing and regulating online gambling then the Conservatives (which is what we should be worrying about) because they love to rob you through new taxes. An outright ban or ban of transactions or whatever would just not happen up here IMO. There is just no support for it.

Ignorant statement? I'd feel much more confident with the liberals in power than your PC government the way it is today. I assume by your stealing millions comment that you're refering to the sponsership scandal. Frivilous spending by the liberals perhaps, but outright stealing? now that's an ignorant statement IMO.

Despite all the shortcomings of the Liberal party, we've had balanced budgets and greater liberties like gay marriages, legalization of pot, etc. When Harper got elected, one of his first priorities was to revisit the gay marriage bill within his first week! WTF does that have to do with anything? I'd feel much more secure with online poker and status quo with someone from the liberal party running our country than a right winged Bush wannabe like Harper.

This will be the end of the thread hijack, I just had to get the last word in because arguing about politics and religion on the internet are for idiots. Thank you.

End hijack.

Please tell me you're kidding or tell me you're from Ontario. Otherwise you make no sense to real Canadians.

whoops sorry about that. I was only semi joking. Sometimes when we live in the centre of the universe, we forget there are Canadians outside of Toronto. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

same sex marriage. Loose drug laws and the http://www.kahnawake.com/gamingcommission/
leads me to believe we are ok.

Go Canada. Land of the free.

Ok, so you refer to funneling over a billion taxpayer dollars into an actual political parties cofers as "frivilous spending". Are you caked up on cocaine? If that happened in the U.S, there would be hell to pay. In Canada, there was hell to pay everywhere except Toronto where you guys are all indoctrinated by nothing but Socialist/Communist pro-Liberal party media.

Keep sniffing that (soon to be legalized) nose candy if you think that we are more free under a Liberal government. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Freedom of press, religion, gun ownership were all more limited under the Liberals.
