You have made 3 posts in this thread, none of them discussing "important and pressing issues", all of them bashing Harper.
Almost every single substantive issue in this election is more important than ISIS.

Even the Duffy debacle is a bigger issue IMO. And honestly the whole Duffy thing is something I don't really give a rat's ass about.

For me, the ISIS "issue" is something I only care about insofar as it frustratingly blinds voters to the real issues - first and foremost in my mind being the continuous anti-democratic, anti-science, and anti-information government we've had for the past nine years.

I may have said this earlier in this thread, but to give an example, the long form census is a far more important issue for me (and should be for all Canadians) than playing whack-a-mole in the middle east.
