Default The Conservative Party of Canada

So now that Harper is in, and conservatives across the country are more united than they've been in decades, what will happen in the next federal election?

Let's use this scenario. Most politicians are lawyers, most lawyers are crooks. Hence the country is run by crooks. I am so sorry they made it impossible for the Rhinocerus Party unable to run delegates.

The Liberals will always win because they are experts at manipulating the public, playing off one ethnic group against another, and giving handouts to friends and special interest groups.

And turning to provincial politics, if the NDP comes to power and raises my family's taxes to 60% of our gross income, we will move to Alberta (not kidding).

I hope that they use Harper to get rid of Martin and then Stronach (sp?) is elected later in a leadership review after Harper eventually messes up.

I voted for the second one.... The liberal will loose alot of seats i feel but not enough to become the opposition I guess wasting billions of dollars over the last 10 years is perfectly fine to do in ontario/quebec

The Rhino party can't run anymore because the Liberal weenies passed a law that made the cost of running in an election prohibitive, and squeezed the Rhino party out. After having been screwed over by all the major parties, I only vote for the party that can't possibly form a government. I do that because I have learned that I can't complain if I don't vote, so i vote, but make sure the party I vote for has no chance. That is why I liked the Rhinos.

Who are these rhinos you speak of? The only small parties I know of that actually exist is the MJ party, the communists, the marxist-leninists, the natural law party, and the greens.

Bob, are you talking about that law where parties had to have 50 candidates in order to fund-raise properly? It was overturned I think.
