I guess you can call me a swing voter… why?

I believe in voting for a party who has my country’s best interest at heart
I believe in voting for a PM who has the best plan to lead our country.

That may very well change from election to election.

My next vote will be a CPC vote.

Harper is the only candidate with a sold economic plan. That is what Canada needs today.
Someone who is a strong leader and isn’t afraid to stand up and say WE CAN’T AFFORD THAT!!!

With America sinking at record-breaking rates, I want a Leader who will give Canadians the necessities we need and cut what we can temporarily do without.

These are uncertain times, I don’t want a candidate to tell me he’s cutting all kinds of taxes and pouring money into this, that and the other… no you’re not…. That doesn’t add up.

Harper clearly shows HOW he is cutting personal income taxes…
reducing the debt = interest savings passed on to tax payers.

The Liberals asked for an additional month to brief up on economic matters after the election… No Thanks Mr. Dion!
I’ll go with a PM who actually has a plan.

I keep hearing about Harper's strong economic plan and I was wondering if he's been letting all of you peek under his sweater.

I forgot to answer this

My top priorities are mostly personal ones

What I want to happen:

Helping the environment

Not helping the big companies as much, I already give them enough of my money. I want a different approach to helping the economy.

untaxed child benefits ( I got screwed on my income tax due to the $2400 daycare $$ I got last year- Thanks Harper )

Something to fix the student loans. 2% above prime intrest?!

More Dr's, better health care

Help create affordable child care and more spaces



There is more that I can't think of now but those are the reasons I am voting NDP. To be honest, I feel like they actually know what it's like to be a middle class family with children trying to make ends meet.

CPC because...

They haven't screwed up on anything too big, too bad, and in these uncertain times stability matters on all the issues.

However...I may vote against them if they look like they're getting too far ahead, because I like this idea of a minority government, to prevent any 1 party from screwing up in too big of a way on any issue at this particular moment in Canadian history.

1. Cut government spending to a minimum.
2. Cut taxes to match spending cuts.
3. Emphasize spending on: A) Medical schools
B) Doctor salaries C) Mandatory skills training
4. Reward municipal governments that spend $ on infrastructure without wasting money on political pork barelling such as David Miller's idea of a $6M renovation of his offices.
5. Provide extreme tax incentives to employers of those involved in highly skilled work and those providing a high standard of living (i.e. get rid of the sweat shop jobs that bring with them the parasitic unions).

*cut taxes to the middle class, small and medium businesses.
*reevaluate the policy of deferred tax status for major corporations.(this alone should pay for the tax cuts).
*create affordable health care with reasonable wait times.
better apprenticeship programs, and raise standards for university enterance similar to those used in Europe.
*reevaluate the education systems in each province, establish national standards, with more emphasis on literacy, math and science.

Conservative:

1. ONLY pro-business party now that DION has "GREEN-SHIFTED" the ENTIRE
Fliberal party left of the NDP
2. They PAY DOWN FEDERAL DEBT! WooT!
3. PM Stephen Harper seems to be making it his personal pet project or mission
to assert sovereignty in North (This would be no.#1 if I wasn't a business owner)
4. Best alternative to Liberal (of which I used to be one) arrogance being cooled,
quick-frozen, and served at 'targeted minority luncheons' which seem awfully
underattended these days
5. Afghanistan firm withdrawal timetable *GASP*
6. Changing policies with changing conditions (governments are usually like
freakin' lemmings when it comes to policy)
7. Putting a capital F in fiscal conservatism and leaving social conservatism
to the Christian Heritage Party where it belongs
8. Putting our financial bottom line before spending-spree-vote-buying
9. Repeating very few Mulroney goofball screwups
10. Rolling back GST, keep it up!
11. I could go on, but really as gramma says, the proof is in the pudding

Do stuff.

Avoid Liberal type fence sitting.

No flippy/flopping..liberals wear them whilst sipping their lukewarm latte.
