Re: Who are you going to vote for?
as long as the NDP stays out, i couldn't care less...
that is unless they raise income taxes or discourage small business, then i don't like them
screw healthcare and education, we should be made to pay for them ourselves (think england, not america on this)
and dammit, get rid of welfare for those who abuse it (not easily done) and stop supporting native ppl, i just couldn't care less for them in this day and age (b/c they really give nothing, their 'historic' culture is a sham in this day and age)

Re: Who are you going to vote for?
VOTE CONSERVATIVE. Liberals are trying to take away our rights, starting with the alleged gun ban on pistols. Ian, you're from the UK, right? You know all about how crime skyrocketed following the handgun ban?
90% of the guns used in crimes here are FROM THE US!!
****ing stupid Liberals, if they're that dumb I don't want them running this country. Scandals, lies and idiotic ideas.

Re: Who are you going to vote for?
I don't see any Libertarians in that list.
Mr00Jimbo is a neo communist, so he will be voting for his close personal friend Mr Jack Layton.
Forget about Kay-beck. I want to give the FU to Ontario for electing these turkeys over and over again. They're the ones that elect the prime ministers.
Why would we want to be like England? They have 40% federal tax at low income levels.

and, taking guns away has nothing to do with our rights... having a deadly weapon is not a right... and no, violence wouldn't go up because of a ban on guns, it goes up because the world is overcrowding itself... no guns = GREAT idea... wont help much, b/c most gun violence is with illegal guns anyway, but its a start

A new study suggests the use of handguns in crime rose by 40% in the two years after the weapons were banned.
http://www.geoffmetcalf.com/aus.html
OBSERVABLE FACT, AFTER 12 MONTHS OF DATA:
Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2%
Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6%
Australia-wide, armed-robberies are up 44% (yes, FORTY-FOUR PERCENT)
In the state of Victoria, homicides-with-firearms are up 300%
Figures over the previous 25 years show a steady decrease in homicides-with-firearms (changed dramatically in the past 12 months)
Figures over the previous 25 years show a steady decrease in armed-robbery-with-firearms (changed dramatically in the past 12 months)
There has been a dramatic increase in breakins-and-assaults-of- the-elderly
At the time of the ban, the Prime Minister said "self-defense is not a reason for owning a firearm"

Australia and the UK both admit their gun ban idea was not a success. Why do you think the gun ban doesn't work? Here's why; when legitamate citizens are told they can no longer have guns, they think "**** now I have to get rid of them," but the legitamate market is deemed illegal, so the only people willing to buy them are criminals willing to inflict harm. Compare gun crimes to car crashes causing death, medical accidents, drug overdoses, etc. etc.
Remember, Prohibiton was the thing that made the Italian Mafia start up and become so powerful; making something illegal gives it street value and allows criminals to control the market. It's ignorant to think even a quarter of guns in Canada are registered...plus, hundreds are coming in from the US by the day.
Remember the 2 BILLION dollar Lie-beral gun registry? Well handgun crime went up 55%. Whoops!

Re: Who are you going to vote for?
you and your f*ckin gun fetish ... why the f*ck do you need a gun man .. you're starting to sound like charlton heston ..
someone your age shouldnt even be allowed to own a gun .. if anything they should raise the age to 25 or 30 ... frankly i feel less safe knowing you have guns in your posession and that other 19 year olds can get guns as easy as beer ...
if you and all the other hooligans in my neighbourhood start totin guns, hey Im gonna have to get one to protect myself .. welcome to texas

Re: Who are you going to vote for?
wow well put payam, LOL. seriously its not just a handgun ban, its combined with increased enforcement with border patrol and gun smuggling, increased funding with rcmp and a rat line where you can call in on people and get rewarded for ratting on someone you know who has a illeagle hand gun. frankly this doesnt affect me, i dont own a gun and dont plan to so i dont care. and if i wanted to i would buy parts off of ebay and put one together myself, LOL
