Well, With 2019 Drawing Near, Maybe It's Time to Dust Off this Classic
It was written for Harper but I'm thinking it's going to be okay for Pipeline Pete. In 2019, we'll get our chance to, well, listen to the song. They won't even have to change the lyrics.
Great idea but everyone is asking the obvious question. Replace with who?
there is a party running in Ontario called the none of the above party in 34 ridings. Maybe progressives from all ideals could highjack it and make it a real alternative. Their main platform seems to be the ability to repeal politicians, senior civil servants and judges is the public disagrees with them so that sounds like a good start.
I admit that, in a contest between JT and Scheer, it has to be the lesser of two weevils. However, I'm a Green and I would urge those who otherwise can't tolerate Tory or Liberal federally, to sign on with us.
I suspect that in the 2019 election, the Green Party will be the only one I can support. With the NDP in disarray thanks to the almost-invisible Jagmeet Singh, I am running short of electoral options.

ReplyDeleteLorne, we don't have any choice. We have to bleed them of every vote we can and the best way to park those votes is with the Greens.
