Get rid of Harper, get a new leader from Ontario, and see what happens.
And here is the crux of the problem.
Easterners would rather be ruled by criminals than by us. We are less Canadian in Bananada.

personally I don't give two sweet flying fatas where you're from, if you're qualified, and capable of running the country I'll vote for you. If you're from Calgary, Toronto, Montreal, or Corner Brook I don't care!
BUT
If the CPC wants to gain votes of Upper Canadians they need someone from Ontario or Quebec, I'm sorry I'm just stating what I think is best for that party.
EASTERNERS don't want corrupt politicans in power. Are you forgetting that 3 of the 4 EASTERN provinces have Conservative governments? Right now I can say Nova Scotians want a balanced budget, the last federal Conservative government promised that and did not deliver. What were seats that were safe Conservative seats, and a Liberal had about as much chance winning there as they do in Calgary started to lose. Only Peter MacKay survived.
And realize to us in the EAST, for every Sponsorhip there's Airbus... which cost more? (actually I don't know, which did cost more?)
The general consensus in the EAST is we're being run by crooks, better the Devil you know than the Devil you don't.
And frankly Martin's proving to be the better leader at the moment, he's winning the pressure votes, and increasing the size of government. Like him, love him, he's leading on the scoreboard. It's all about politics, and Martin's playing the game to win.
PLEASE
FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT'S GOOD AN HOLY
DO NOT
NOT
NOT
NOT
NOT
CALL ONTARIO AND QUEBEC EASTERN CANADA! There are FOUR of 10 provinces MORE EAST, there Upper Canada!
(just a major peeve of mine)
edit: as long as the "us versus them" mentality is in this country it's going to be bad, why can't we all be Canadians, or Bananadans?
