I voted... will I vote in the next election? Maybe, but probably not... why? Because I'm tired of my vote not counting for anything... the current system doesn't allow for my vote to count for anything! Living in the riding of calgary SW and not being a supporter of the conservatives/reform/alliance party doesn't really give my vote much of a say, so why bother?

Others more learned might correct me but I believe every vote goes to generating a certain amount of federal funding for the party you are supporting, within a certain threshhold to eliminate fringe parties.
So technically, if I have that right, every vote does help advance your opinion in a way.
