100% agree. The quality of Canadian news is at an all time low, and now we get to talk about the hat worn by wife of the orange Mussolini.

I don't have cable, but when I went to my father's house he had it on whatever the CTV new channel is, and the coverage was just as dreadful.

I read things on here, so I guess I can’t be that picky.

Why did reading that sentence damage my brain?

Umm, using “natural products” to deter pests means you are using pesticides.

Anything with, about, or referencing River Song moves to the bottom of any favourites or best of list.

I think it could be considered cruel and unusual to force asylum seekers to live in Kanata.

The NIMBY is strong in Kanata.

Well since it’s a parliamentary system, unless I moved I can’t vote for or against Marit directly. I’ll have to wait to see what winner the party chooses to put in locally. The last time they ran roughshod over the CA bylaw and regulations to have their pick lose 50% of the votes the local candidate who ran previously had and that the party chased away.

We are pretty early so there hasn’t been any local candidates announced. I presume the incumbent conservative will run since it seems he will spend the remainder of his life living off the public dime.

So I will have to see who the local candidates are and use that as the basis.

As far party leadership goes, it is mostly a wash. Dougie is as corrupt as they come. After the Sarah Jama affair, Marit clearly lacks any morals. Bonnie, so far appears to be running a very right of centre neo-liberal agenda. That leaves Mike, who by most accounts is a pretty good guy - however in my riding the Greens typically run candidates who don’t have anything to do with my riding - barely even showing up in the riding during the campaign.

So to reiterate, at this point I don’t know. It would almost entirely depend on who the local candidates are.

I will never vote for the party of the corrupt fucker who ejected Sarah Jama from caucus.

Fuck Marit and her liberalism agenda.
