Up until this point in time, I haven’t posted anything relating to politics on my blog. I didn’t consciously decide to avoid politics, it just worked out that way. However, with a federal election coming up in Canada on June 28th, and later in the year for the United States, there are some things on my mind that I am going to post about. Instead of one long uber-post, I have decided to make multiple posts and include them in my first ever “blog mini series”.
I am clearly not the first one to post about the elections; there are many blogs out there dedicated to covering the different political parties. As this is the introduction post to my mini series, I won’t bring up a topic, but I will share a couple links with you.
- Martin @ EclecticBlogs talks about the importance of casting your vote. Make sure you are there on election day!
- Another one from Martin – which party is the REAL Canadian party? Find out in his investigation.
- CalgaryGrit shares with us the latest support percentages. I think we can all agree another majority Liberal government is completely out the window.
- Paul Martin says that if Harper is elected, Canada will look a lot like the United States.
- Be sure to check out BlogsCanada’s list of Informative Links for Canada’s 2004 Election.
I hope you will read and share your comments on my thoughts in this mini series. Since there are no religious movies out right now for us to debate, I figure politics is the next best thing – everyone has an opinion 🙂

Steven Harper is a fascist and so is Paul Marin. It will be sad to see a conservative goverment in power (minority). The way we knwo this country will be chnaged forever if either of these pigs are allowed to rule. Health care,
abortion, minority rights, will be flushed down the democratic toilet. I plead with all canadians to vote with a conscious and vote NDP!!! Don’t wate your time with the green party, who has no platform other tathn the enviroment! NDP stands for all of us, adn the enviroment!..
