Toronto, Montreal, Newfoundland, Nunavut, PEI and Vancouver...Don't allow yourself to get shut out of a Conservative majority government
We need representation in all parts of Canada. Today's article in the Globe is especially important. Areas where you can vote strategically Conservative to insure a representative in government include:
Toronto - Don Valley West John Carmichael and various ridings in the GTA
Northern Ontario - Kenora Greg Rickford and Thunder Bay Rainy River Neumann
Newfoundland - Avalon Fabian Manning
Prince Edward Island - Egmont Gail Shea
Montreal area - Vaudreuil-Soulanges Michael Fortier
Vancouver - Vancouver Quadra Deborah Meredith and North Vancouver Andrew Saxton
North - Nunavut Leona Aglukkaq
Of course in Newmarket-Aurora the same argument holds. If you want a voice in the government; Lois Brown and the Conservative Party are your choice. There has been a lot of talk of strategic voting to stop Harper. I think more intelligent strategic voting would be to make sure your riding and region has a voice in the government benches and cabinet. Newfoundland, PEI, Montreal, the North, Vancouver and Toronto being shut out of a majority government would not be helpful in any way to the residents of these places. The national outcome is decided and Harper will remain Prime Minister. At best it will be a majority government. At worse it will be a much stronger minority. NDP is close to second place and with 10 days to go, it is hard to imagine all of the gains made by May, Duceppe and Layton will consolodate behind Dion's weak leadership in these final days of the campaign. Vote strategically and vote Conservative. We are now in the final days of this campaign. Over the next ten days Harper will try and close the deal on a majority. For that to happen, the real focus will have to be on each of the individual battlegrounds that are considered "too close to call" by Democraticspace.com and Electionprediction.org. Keep working hard Conservatives...victory is so close you can almost taste it. The dream of a united right coming together and governing this country with a majority is within reach.
