Guilty as charged! 10Ring's an "Eastern RednecK" :lol:

STALKER, just because I think Martin may not be involved, doesn't make me a liberal nor a conservative. (I voted conservative in the last election and liberal before that.) I try to see things without the party horse blinders provided with the handed out team sweaters. I am not calling every westerner a redneck because I do not believe this for a second. Not every french Quebecer is a separatist either. I am saying that the reason the conservatives will never muster more than a minority government is because of the extreme right rednecks influencing the conservative agenda in far too great a fashion for most to vote for from places like Ontario. Belinda sees that the present rulers of the party aren't going to change their views on social issues. If you look at the large population centers (Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal) you will see folks that are concerned with social issues (gays, abortion, immigration, etc.). The conservative's approach here needs to be loosened and more "center" to get these folks to vote for them.


ALINALBERTA, looks like I hit a nerve! First of all, that's not even close to my logic or anything I have stated here. On your three points I must be a redneck too!
