This is my first video blog entry. Well, if you count “Bye Bye Barlow” it’s actually my second. Either way, here it is. There are a few technical things I’m still not entirely happy with, but after a week of messing around, it’s time to publish it anyway.

I’m just throwing this out there, because, based on what Stephen Harper has been saying, as of right now, it seems fairly unlikely, however elections can cause strange things to happen. Michael Ignatieff and Stephen Harper agree on little. But it does seem that Ignatieff and Harper DO agree that a government headed by Jack…

The Liberals are in deep trouble. While their seat spread is much smaller, Michael Ignatieff has the potential of leading the Liberal Party to their worst defeat in history…

The numbers are very positive for the Conservative party. Despite polling 35%, the concentration of NDP support is in Quebec, at the expense of all other parties. This pulls down the national support figure for the Conservatives, and pulls up the same figure for the NDP.

In the same vein as my last prediction, put out this morning from the data supplied by Nanos Research, here is one based on the data supplied by the most recent Ekos poll, also released today: Conservative: 144 NDP: 108 Liberal: 53 Bloc Quebecois: 3 Ekos is an interesting firm. Their results are always very…

Things are looking very well for the Conservatives, who are in clear majority territory now. Michael Ignatieff’s political career is pretty much over, Jack Layton, if the trends continue, may just become leader of the Official Opposition, and Gilles Duceppe seems to be on track to retirement.

It doesn’t matter that the solution is not to any particular problem; but, by golly, governments do things better than individual citizens, so we need a solution! Step 2: Tax People to pay for Solution found in Step 1. Government programs need bureaucrats to administer…
Read moreCoalition – Yes, No, Well maybe, If Necessary but Not Necessarily, Yes Maybe No, and No again.
Either Ignatieff is planning a coalition and is hiding his agenda, or he thinks Canadians will return the Liberals to power outright. In either case, it isn’t about governing Canada, it’s about power – for Michael Ignatieff.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything to this blog, and the reason for that is simple: Unlike many social activists, I actually work for a living. Most conservatives do; which is why you always see public rallies and demonstrations by left wingnuts and not conservatives (usually). The Liberals and their supporters, in a…
