I did my part and haven't met ONE person who will vote for him.

But in Ontario and Quebec that's a different story by sheer numbers. No pun intended Mr, Scheer.

Trudeau is a moron.
He makes "The Donald" look like a stable genius.

You're Canadian?
Wow, with the way you comment on American politics one would think you actually have a say...you don't

The NDP has never had (outside of the prairie provinces) enough national support to win an election.

Parliamentary elections are nothing like the federal US variety

If Burls isn't an American citizen with the ability to vote in our elections then his word on American affairs doesn't mean squat either as far as I'm concerned.
His avatar says he lives in Vancouver...he's probably Canadian but we don't know.
Burls?

Refreshing to see...no bias based on political beliefs discernible here. However, Woodtoo is a much more pleasant person to converse with. I'd welcome him into my home, anytime.

I'm sure I get recognized as a lefty on this board (and I do lean left in my politics) but my main agenda is that the Dems and Reps are ALL corrupt and don't have our best interests in mind.
Hillary is a career corrupt politician and the poster child for what we don't want in office.
I won't get into the Trump thing, but I'm not a supporter.

The political climate in our country is as nasty as i can remember, and the posts on this board exemplify that. The same folks have the same arguments just about everyday, but what's being accomplished by these dust ups?
NOTHING...nobody is changing anyone else's mind.
The insults are disgusting and never ending...the term "libtard" is particularly nasty, and uncalled for.

I post mainly in Off Topic to hack off those who are taking this way too seriously, and being way too nasty about it.
Boxcar and Hcap are the two biggest offenders.
They've had hundreds of exchanges that have amounted to nothing but a waste of time.
Live your lives people!

PS- i blame horseracing for all of this. If the sport hadn't gotten so darned ridiculous we would be talking about races and other stuff. Folks have lost interest in the game and are turning their attention to other topics on this board
I really just wanna talk horses y'all

Thank you MargieRose so kind of you to say, as for Burls you are correct also.

Yes. The teacher will be sent back to Montreal...and the insurance agent will take his place.

Okay. my apologies for being harsh.
I just think it's kind of out of line for someone who's not even a citizen of this country to take such firm stances on OUR politics.
You don't even live in the USA, yet you seem like a registered Republican.

This is why I don't go on message boards innnnnnn, I don't know, South Africa and take political sides.
My opinion on their affairs doesn't amount to a hill of beans if I'm not a citizen who can vote and influence those elections
