Think he'll do a good job as Prime Minister of this beautiful nation? I saw an interview with him today, and it looks like he's got some great ideas for the nation, and has a vision.
I like his idea of occassionally moving parliament around. Could be nice in February in BC.
Not a fixed circuit, but really moving around. Canadians would become much better educated about politics.
Of course, it would also be a great opportunity for pork-barrelling!
I desperately hope that I'm wrong, but everytime I see this guy I think that he's going to be at least as bad as Mulroney.
As for moving the Parliament around...why not just place it in Thompson, Manitoba. It's as close to the middle of the country as they can get and still have somewhat regular air service. They could hold Question Period in Trapper's Bar and Grill. It would give them a chance to really get in touch with the country.
Winter in Van city, skiing in AB, lobster in the Maritimes, TO could become the <<<absolute>>> centre of the universe for a while.
I like that idea also. It will get the provinces who feel neglected by parliament, to take part and feel appreciated by the Canadian government. Yukon, ho!
Or it could lead to confusion and lead to ad-hoc decisions being made instead of a solid policy being developed.
I think we need real political reforms, not a travelling freak show.
A vote for the Liberals equals continued non-support of our proud military, therefore Paul Martin couldn't possibly get my vote.
Who are you going to vote for??
The Alliance?? They would turn the military into a division of the US forces.
To bad we couldn't have a non politician for PM. It would seem that people have great and noble goals before becoming politicians and then something happens................
I'd love to see the Marijuana party in office! lol we could have a new type of smoke break. Forget flex fridays, pot luck friday's! lol I was going to put down a bunch of other positives but I've forgotten what they were
Other symptoms may include: independent thinking, environmental responsibility and the munchies.
It's exceptionally hard to trust any politician nowadays, with all their hidden agenda's--- no idea whom I'd vote for. Let's just see what Mr.Martin has to say... Cheers
Talk today is Shiela Martin will make a wonderful first lady. Talk about putting the cart before the horse. uggghhh
Be nice to vote for our next PM instead of how wonderful it will be once he moves into his office
Many people will vote - just differently from you.
PS your last sentence doesn't make sense.
