The crazy election season is upon us and I find myself more interested in the US Presidental Election than the Canadian Federal election. Part of the problem is I find a lot of faults with all the parties at the moment and I feel generally disenfranchised.
Where is the fiscal conservative yet socially liberal party I yearn for? Before the election I was considering the Liberals for the first time ever but their Green Shift non-platform-plank has left me confused at first glance and despondent at second glance. The Green party went from fiscal conservative to socialistic nightmare for me, and the NDP... well... I'm still scarred by Bob Rae's days in Ontario thank you very much.
My goal over the next couple weeks is to analyze more closely all the platforms and try to come to a decision, but I'm not confident I'll be able to vote for anyone with holding my nose.
