"So, how do you arrive at '65% who don't want Harper', when the margin of victory on May 2 was just barely shy of 40% (39.6% to be exact)? Time to re-do the math."

"This is in itself important for all those 65% who don't want Harper.
However, with this core and the opposition so divided,
Harper has no intention of giving up power.

His justification being that he has the support of the people, Democracy be dam[redacted]ed. We, of course, saw this last time, and the time before, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

In a way, there is not much point in pursuing the Robo-Con matter.

since Stephen Harper simply will not allow by-elections to rectify the situation.

Nor will Stephen Harper allow an Inquiry."


to which is added:

"Trudeau urged all Canadians to 'stand up and be counted'

Now it is to 'stand up to be counted'.

Perhaps if you are going to attack people by accusing them of not checking their math

You might at least:

- have the conviction of your statements by telling us you true name so you may be held to account.

- make some attempt to be factual.

"A month of controversy over pensions, privacy and Pierre Poutine has failed to dent support for the Conservative Party, according to a new poll by Nanos Research.

Support for the Tories remained exactly the same – at 35.7 per cent – compared to a month earlier.

Support for the Liberals climbed slightly to 29.5 per cent from 27.6 per cent, while the NDP’s numbers were essentially unchanged at 25 per cent."
