Blessed by the Potato

The Cons have been campaigning non-stop since the last election, itching to throw down by making nearly every issue in parliament a confidence vote. Finally sick of working within a surprisingly functional minority government, Harper has broken his own fixed election date legislation and called an election. I’m actually quite surprised that it’s coming — I felt sure the Governor General would slap him about the head with his own fixed election date, and give Dion a shot at being PM for a week.

Looks like I’m going to have to get off my butt and do some thorough research into the Liberal Green Shift plan — though my riding is likely to go Liberal anyway.
