So would you be willing to do a one time vote to declare me as your belevolent dictator for life? I promise, no more of these pesky elections. There's even a job for you in my ministry of justice and order.

I've seen plenty of shots going either way on this board, I was actually fairly pleased that things seemed to be fairly balanced on CalgaryPuck considering that it is a Calgary based website.

I'll counter that, by stating that this is truly not an election based on long term planning. I also think cynically that what Michael Ignatieff is proposing is not long term planning, but a trip to the past where he's pulling out old Liberal and NDP ideas, and Its the wrong message for this election.
Harper hasn't run a great campaign to me, but Ignatieff has truly failed to take advantage of it, these programs really smell of Bob Rae and the more powerful but socialist elite in the Liberal party.
