OMG FANCY QUIZ

It said I should be voting for Duceppe, but I can't in Manitoba.

[Baalzamon]

wow, I am a 100% match with jack layton , with duceppe in second with 68, harper 58 and martin 42

how am I more of a match with harper than with martin when I am left leaning?

[AChimp]

The same way that I can be "all for" Duceppe but totally against separatists.

- People make mistakes, machines don't. There's plenty of time to move to Quebec. First, you'll need to get familiar with the Bloc's platform: BlocQuébécois.org, try to learn the lyrics to Gens du Pays cause they'll be singing this for sure on election night and a French phrase for quick service at restaurants: Un smoke meat, une grosse poutine et une Laurentide, sti!

- As for myself, it's Layton at 100, Martin at 73, Duceppe at 67 and Harper at 13.

I just heard that funding would be given to any party with >2% of the country or 5% of a ridiing.

Bah, what make the reform party so regional? Couldn't you say the same thing about the Liberal party, except that they happen to have a hold over a more populous region? Thats what I hate about Ontarions, they think they're the only real Canadians
If you're all so much more Canadian, you should just kick the rest of us out, and form a new Canada, and the rest of us can just be The Confederation formerly known as Canada
Bah I'm drunk, but you get the gist of it

- Besides their politics not much I guess...

- The Liberal Party of Canada is a truly national party not only for its ideology, but for having MPs from every Canadian region, which includes drunken King Ralph's kingdom aka. the Canadian province of Alberta.

Thats what I hate about Ontarions, they think they're the only real Canadians

- Wrong again. The chosen ones don't think it - they know it.

Chimp stole my quiz! :o Either way, it's a pretty cool quiz, and I, surprising enough, got a 100 for Layton. Hmm, not so surprising perhaps. Apparently a preliminary agreement has already been reached by the Liberals and NDP to form a coalition if they can. It'll be interesting if Martin gets to stay PM even if the Conservatives have more seats than Liberal's. It's really up to the Governer-General and how she uses her prerogative powers, ie. whether she asks Martin to step down and allows Harper to govern anyway. Somehow I doubt that would happen, since she was appointed by Liberals, so I'm really crossing my fingers on a Liberal-NDP government.

It was a good quiz to steal.

[The One and Only...]

100% for Harper.

I might be moving to Canada soon anyway, provided I can't scrape together the money to get to Australia.

Paul Martin Leader of Liberal Party of Canada (score=56)
Gilles Duceppe Leader of the Bloc Quebecois (score=11)
Jack Layton Leader of the New Democratic Party of Canada (score=11)

it's good to see you taking part in the politics forum, Chojin, but I hate all this talk of moving.

Why does it matter to you since you live in Texas anyway? ;<

I just find myself hating more and more of what this country's now about every day.
