Coalition Government: Behold, the 3 Stooges are here to govern Canada

(Comic source: The Globe and Mail; Dec 2)
Wow. This is democracy at its worst during such economic uncertainty. This is a proof that politicians are self-interests maximizer. Politicians buy our vote; we vote them in. Yet, they seem to treat Parliament as if it were a kindergarten playground. Why do people not realize for everyone to be able to pull through an economic recession is to co-operate? This is not the time to play games to gain political power. Partnering with the separatist party? Stephane Dion, avez-vous perdre la tĂȘte?!

If the coalition goes ahead on Monday, I am never voting again because apparently, mine and some other person's votes will never count anyway; the opposition would always do what they please and they would not care about what majority of voters think. People who did not vote for the Conservatives, did not vote for a coalition government. This is not how democracy works. If the coalition goes ahead, all of Canada's power will lie in the hands of a few political leaders from the East and with the separatists, leaving the West vulnerable and displeased. It will upset a lot of Western Canadians. Playing Robin Hood does not create National Wealth; increasing productivity creates wealth and results in increase of GDP. Once again, the West is being alienated.

PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION AGAINST THE COALITION IF YOU BELIEVE IN DEMOCRACY. (Click on linked sentence)
