Canada has an election on Monday. How many is that now in so few years? That's the joy of a multi-party system, minority governments and special interest groups in Quebec.
I wish we weren't heading to the polls on Monday.
However, I'm glad we get to vote, and I will if the river don't rise.
We seem to have gotten the idea that Remembrance Day/Veterans Day is an important day, finally. However, until we have a better turn out on election day, its like showing up to church on Easter or Christmas. Its better than nothing, but it looks more like duty than a true understanding of the bigger issues. Why did we fight? Why do we need to vote? It couldn't happen again, right?
Vote, left-wing, right-wing, I don't care who for. I just care that you exercise the right.
