I'm annoyed with all the "Canadians didn't want an election" talk. To be honest, I did. A number of family members did. Several of my friends did. I would guess that (at least) a third of people I know wanted an election. I would wager there's at least one person who specifically wanted an election for every person who specifically didn't.

As for who triggered it......I could give two ####s. It actually angers me that an election is reported/treated as an inconvenience.

We gave 8 BILLION DOLLARS to a couple of car companies without a single discussion in Parliament, but suddenly spending $300 Million on an election is WASTEFUL? Get a freakin' grip people.
