This election campaign is starting to piss me off. All it's been so far is bash the Liberals, I have heard very little from the NDP and nothing from the Conservatives regarding their party platforms. This whole election is turning into a joke and that's very frustrating.

I have studied many different government systems and I think that Germany has the right idea, very decentralized - The Lander (equivalent to our provinces) have more power than the federal government - which is what or close to what our provinces want - hey that might take care of the whole health care "issue". I also like the fact that 2 parties rule Germany. I suppose the closest we can get to that is a minority government, which I what I am hoping for this time round.

ETA: I don't like the Aussie rule of you have to vote; Canada isa free democratic society and one should be able to choose if they want to vote or not; however I am a firm believer in "if you are too lazy to get off your arse and go vote" then you loose your bitching rights. If you don't like the way Canada is being run, but you didn't go vote - then you don't get to complain.
