Open letter to the NDP and Liberal Leaders



Dear Tom and Justin,

A three way tie does not work out in Canada's favour. It especially does not work out in Canada's favour when the voter base that isn't yours, because you have the same base, is the one most likely to turn out in droves on election day.

While I hope I'm wrong, I predict a Conservative minority government with either an NDP or Liberal opposition. The opposition party will be the one that fucks up the least before October. Currently it's looking like you, Tom, and I can't say it's undeserved after four years of throwing well-thought rocks at a wall of stupid.

Pay attention Justin, you're on watch after that yea vote on an anti-terrorism bill that never should have seen the light of day. I know it was meant to avoid a soft-on-terrorism attack ad, but in terms of weighty decisions, either you or your shortpants chose poorly. Expecting your base to get over the legislative trampling of their charter and privacy rights to not create a "wedge issue" when a Conservative majority guaranteed its passage anyway is just stupid. Everybody voted against it but your guys and the assholes that wrote it. In terms of a wedge, observe the side you placed yourself on on that 30/60 right-left split (the other 10 never ever counts).

As much as I would love a repeat of 1993 for either of you, it ain't happening come October unless Harper quits and Rona Ambrose, Helena Guergis, or Bev Oda replaces him. That ain't happening either. For the Liberals, you'd have to erase the last 20 years of the NDP government.  For the NDP, under Jack I'd say there was a chance, Tom, at this point nobody likes you as much as him.

If either of you actually gives a shit about Canada, you'll get over any ego issues the two of you have and should I be right, form a coalition after Harper’s defeat in the first vote in the House of Commons, because it's not about either of you. It's not about your parties. I don't give a flying fuck about your parties. It's about fucking Canada. It's our glorious true north strong and free. It's taking care of everything that makes me proud to be a Canadian that's been neglected, abused, dismantled, discontinued or sold off in this country in last decade.

And for the first one who says I was elected to serve my party and my constituents and I won't compromise by forming a coalition government, fuck you, you're wrong. Any gains you make in voting over the last election are not votes for you, they're votes against Harper. Even if they were votes for your party, it was because they want your MP to make things better not worse. Sitting on the sidelines splitting votes while the Harper Conservatives continue to run this country like it's Walmart is making things worse.

So Tom and Justin, suck it up, play nice with one another and fix this fucking country.

PS look at the picture. It's photo evidence you can get along.

  2. Agree wholeheartedly! Which is nice, since you are an Oracle.
