Even when the Liberals win, they instantly forget about my rust belt riding; has been the case for 30 years. And federally they slip the velvet glove over the iron fist of rampant neo-liberlism.

I'll be doing everything I can to defeat the Liberals. That Liberal 'natural governing entitlement' party's fear mongering machine has ran out of gas, and their leader is buffoon. The NDP can win, just like they did in Quebec 2011. Our Con/Lib controlled Media suppressed the word on the street running up to 2011 that the NDP were going to win.

Don't expect the MSM to ever acknowledge that this is a 3 party race with policy platforms, and HOC vote records that 'could' be discussed instead of Mulcairs beard, or Trudeau's hair. Thats up to us little people to educate our friends, colleagues,and neighbours.
