It's all over in NZ.
Helen Clark and the Labour party are out in the cold.
Now John Keys will take over. They'll be opening the books tomorrow - and that's when all the promises will be broken.

three parties....

1) Liberals, who are in fact conservatives, led by a former Mulroney Cabinet minister...
2) ADQ... ...far, far right....
3) PQ, looney separatistes... ...an ethnic party, similar to those in Iraq....

...what a choice!

One year I ended up voting Natural Law, Doug Hennig & the Maharishi, since they sounded the most sane....

...hey, folks out there in New Zealand, Wales, Australia,... ...how ya doin????

In Quebec I consider it not a vote for but rather a vote against.

Especially verse2.....

O Lord our God arise,
Scatter her enemies
And make them fall;
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix,
God save us all!

Elections, Peace. Canada, US & now Quebec. Gets mighty tedious after a while.

It's just the Quebec elections cause me to roll out the Union Jack and sing Maple Leaf Forever, and GS the Q.
