federal election and poll

[bucket]

Will it be called this weekend?

And a quick poll - which party will you vote for at this time.

[tweety]

Depends on TPP talks, will Canada trade off poultry, auto, and dairy?

[bucket]

Of the election is called I am not sure those talks continue on Canada's behalf.

[freewheat]

I find it really funny that a fixed election has to be "called". We all know there will be an election this year. Thank you Mr. Harper, for clearing it up and making fixed dates in the first place.

[freewheat]

Oh, I forgot. I will vote for the party who has made and kept the most promises of any party in my lifetime, the one who got rid of the gun registry, the CWB, the one who has made significant tax changes, the one actually talking about property rights and defending ones home, the one with a leader who is steady and solid, and not flapping his wings in the winds, depending on which way it blows.

Lol freewheat!! You should run for office, you can spout propaganda as well as these guys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZcpNJxB4Mk

Is the ad true that mulcair has refinanced His house 11 times. Don't see why that isn't true and how you could vote for a man like that to run our country. I'm a little scared though

Is that the same government that gutted the farm programs?

Moved agri invest from 3 percent to 1.5 percent?

The same guys that can't understand the transparent reporting the American farmers have like forward sales etc?

The guys that do nothing about 1.20 a liter gas while oil is under 50 bucks?

The guys that have made 30 some funding announcements in the past few days prior to an election call?

The guys that ignored the drought and it's impact to areas of saskatchewan and alberta? BTW the rain didn't help crops.

The same guys that are fighting wars in the Ukraine and middle east while our infrastructure in this country goes to shit?

The same guys that appointed a bunch of thugs to the Senate? Instead of changing it as promised.

The same guys that said they would change mps pension plans?

Good on you, canada will he a better place for sure.

I'm with FreeWheat on this one. All my farming life I didn't like the CWB monopoly. This Government said they'd end and did. They have my support. A vote for any other party is a vote for a return to the monopoly.

[tmyrfield]

2 leaders have promised unequivocally to raise taxes. Higher taxes means more regulations and more public service employees to enforce them. Environmental regulations will be absorbing absolutely stifling for farmers and will do little good fore environment. Double wall fuel tanks. Chem storage facilities licenses toapply chems and ferts. Higher costs fir fuel chems and fert due to carbon tax.
Also will impose another pension like Ontario new pension on everyone except publuc service. Employers and employees both pay in.farmers like with cpp will pay both.
Guess who has my vote.

[riders2010]

They didn't get rid of the cwb for us they did it for the grain cos and for the chineese etc that own and will own more of our farm land and therefore will be able to send grain directly home. There is not a thing stopping that from happening and it will, they aren't saying it now because they haven t bought enough but its part of their plan.

Bucket. Who is your vote for then? Trudeau. Can't be serious. Can you imagine him sitting around the G8 table? Mulcair. Really can't be serious. Refinance your house 11 times? I agree, the conservatives havnt been perfect,looking at your list, but no govt is and look at the alternative. Just wait and see what Alberta looks like in 2 years. The business community is moving jobs and business out faster then you can blink. It's going to get ugly and no one is reporting on it.

Sadly you are right and I can't argue your logic today. But I will try.

But the problems in alberta didn't start with voting ndp.

It started with our so called allies wanting to shitcan the price of oil.

I think the conservatives are tired and what's more concerning is that 4 years from now I don't see a replacement for harper.

Better to cut the ties, get harper out and find a better leader for canada.

More importantly get mps that tell beauracrats what to do.

Do I think a vote for the ndp is right -no. But I have that right to do so and will.

My MP watched idly as a rail line got tore out in his constituency. His logic was you can't tell private business what to do. Well private business shouldn't send a 100 million highway bill to the province.

I can't vote for lack of vision.
There was a compromise for that area and my MP showed nothing after 15 years in Ottawa.

It can't continue.

[Oliver88]

Agree with Freewheat, there is only option.

We likely have the best leaders in Canada and Saskatchewan currently.

When I wonder how the NDP would turn out a guy just has to look at Manitoba......yikes.

[vvalk]

Bucket. Going to go back to, your going to vote for a man to run the entire country and in a way part of the world, who has remortgaged his house 11 times. 11. How is that possible? Look at the ndps history on candidates federally and now in Alberta. So you really are just voting for the leader.
