cbc article on retiring MPs

It includes this:
Rob Anders isn't running again because he lost not one but two Conservative nomination battles in Calgary.
His last speech amounted to a thank you — to gun owners, victims of Communism, parents who home-school their children, police officers and others who, as he put it, "fought in the battle for preventing the moral decay inside Western civilization itself."
Wow. That's been part of Calgary's representation to the federal government. to be polite: i'm not sure if i've ever met many Calgarians who share those views as their priorities in politics... Glad a different perspective will be there.
