Bleh, CBC isnt showing the Green Candidates pictures and votes, too bad!

OFC our ultimate (If your voting Green) goal is getting OVER 2% (For the Funding) and then possibly hoping for a wobbly minority (Inspiring a quicker election).

It seems likely that the Greens will get a seat at the next debate which will allow them to actually get their message out.

Be interesting to keep tabulating the SEIV forum vote

Re: Suicide Junkie: That's awsome part of our group placed a call to the Greens inquiring about their budget, we got a candidate to call us back and give us the entire low down and then email us a bigger break down Was a nice personal touch.

I also voted for the Green Party! Out of all the platforms, I felt their one was the best suited for the future of our country and most in tune with my own views. Hopefully our votes this election will go to help make them visible for the next one.

Good News For Greens - From CBC.CA

Quote:
HALIFAX - The Green Party, fighting to be recognized as a legitimate fourth party, recorded a major boost to its party's fortunes, taking three percent of the vote in Atlantic Canada.

The party, which had complained about not being allowed to participate in the two all leaders' debates, climbed a whopping 2.9 per cent from the Last election.

In 2000, their vote was almost negligible, recording only 0.1 per cent, or 1,100 votes.

This election, the party has so far received more than 24,000 votes

Well, from my highly scientific analysis of the voting patterns in the current election I have reached the following conclusion:

The Green party could win the next election in a landslide if they provide copies of Space Empires IV to every Canadian household.

Hmmm, I wonder if the same would work in America. Someone get Nader on the phone...

...And it's a Liberal-NDP Coaltion, but still a Liberal government nonetheless. I guess we'll have to wait until the next election for a Conservative government.

I don't know whether to be sad or indifferent.
