Plea from a canadian québecer!-
Please! Get retired canadian top soldiers to re-enlist right now and save my Canada!
Mr Rick Hellier is the man of the situation as our democracy is crumbling under the Harper dictator and the disorganized parliement (what's left of it)
Rick Hellier must be convinced to put his cadidacy for the liberal leadership.
He only now can put the Ottawa house back into order. ALL canadians have a tremendous respect for him and NEED his leadership NOW!
AS IT is the Bloc Québecois is the only party preventing Harper from a majority and this is a great concern for Canada!
Rick Hellier mus return to active duty as leader of the liberals, our nation needs him

First off I must tell you I'm not much of a speller but here it goes.

If names like Stephane Done, Jack Lame-man and Gilles Deceit think they have any chance of running this country as effective as Steven Harper..I suggest they change their names first.It's kinda funny though how each name fits the personality..........Good luck ...

I should be able to vote in federal elections for political party of my choice,but I can not,why?because nobody from Canada can't vote for BQ,unless you are from quebec!This is absurd!
I am looking forward with great glee at current political situation,there is more than one way, to have BQ in charge of Canada.
'One more point on the subject,' Quebec is a separate state, and now it will form Canadian national government.As to the GG,why is she deciding Canada's political future!get rid of the queen, and all the British colonialism!!
