What's Really Disgusting About the Election

I've been a Liberal supporter for as long as I can remember but, seeing what's happened to the party for the last few disappointing years, I can only say that I'm disgusted with them.

They have no leaders. They have no vision. They have no integrity.

They ran a smear campaign and focused on the negatives of the Tories instead of offering an alternative that the people of this country could believe in.

They've become a party of desperation, grabbing for power from a place of confusion and weakness.

Sad.

This was the party that gave us a national pension plan and Medicare. This was the party honored us with a nobel laureate. This was the party that inspired us to believe that government could work for the people.

This is the party that now offers us no credible alternatives at a time when they are so desperately needed.

It breaks my heart to think about what they were, and what they've become.

It was the Canada of Pearson and Trudeau that caused me to immigrate. By the time we reached John Turner, I was getting to leave again.

Don't despair. The odds of the party's extinction are now so great that in but a few years, there'll be no party left to disappoint you further.
