No Joy in mudville
Mighty Casey struck out AGAIN!. It is not easy being Green. The only good I can see out of a Conservative minority is Steven has to learn to play nice in the big playground if he wants to get anything done. The other good thing is the NDP picked up a good number of seats and they have been putting forth an effort to be more "Green". They draw the line when jobs are on the line. I understand that. I don't have to like it, but I understand that. I have a lot of friends who said the decided to vote at the last moment for the NDP in a bid to stop Harper from getting a majority and to send a message to the liberals that they are fed up with corruption. I also understand that.
Locally our Green candidate worked closely with the NDP candidate, even to the point of setting up her website ( and ours) and they were founding members (including me and a bunch of others who were there) to start the C.A.R.E. group, an environmental group that is a kind of umbrella organization for smaller local groups and individuals. I hope Kathleen gave Jack alot to think about when he passed through here.
I am still disapointed. I was hopeing for at least one green to get in. Now the big dogs in the media can continue to manipulate the vote by excluding us (again- shame on them!). My question is why are they afraid of the green party, that they would go to such extremes to keep us out? I never voted for them, yet they hold tremendous sway over who gets elected and who does not. That is abuse of power. They are corrupt! Why is no one going to look into to that pile of crap. None of the other parties want to look into it because they are afraid as well. I would dare Jack Layton to stand up for democracy or any of the other party leaders for that matter and have it looked into.
