yes, it's a landmark election.
Stephen Harper is out of office after 10 years.
Harper was an Autocrat, silencing his own Environmental Scientists, to favour Albertan Oil,
and he is behind this Pacific Trade Agreement, economically unpopular with many Canadians,
and he is not a big supporter of LGBT,
and he is nonchalant about serious issues confronting First Nations.
But Trudeau panders to the Muslim community, is very young, and doesn't have much of an economic plan.
the NDP also panders to Muslim communities...but the NDP took a fearful drubbing.
Not to mention. The damn constant corruption scandals.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
