Three elections in two months??? Crise, tabernac, sacramouille!

(Okay just for Quebeckers, but cripeys!)

To which I say : God Save the Queen!!!

Currently waiting for the results here in NZ, too.

Lot of it about, eh?

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.

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!

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

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????

Sarah, thanks, I'm so backlogged! I still have an unfinished Pensee about Gay Marriage, Bimetalism, and William Jennings Bryan...

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.
