"it's his WIFE'S views they are concerned about"
If you stop to think about it for a second, it is more than his wife's views. It reflects on his judgement.
Trudeau is married to a TV journalist, you are married to someone working at a pharmacy (so am I), these things do not reflect on our judgement. This case is different.
Sometimes you vote for something or someone, sometimes you vote against something or someone. I applaud valve's decision to stand up and do what's right in his judgement.
Once in a while I find myself enjoying a moment in life that was totally unexpected.
Here we have a dyed in the wool Conservative who is also a supporter of Israel and he is now facing an election where the Conservative candidate is not only Muslim, but the candidate’s wife is very open about her support for the Palestinian people. What a conundrum! It’s like being on a ship, with no water to drink.
his wishy washy stand on Sharia law and the fact that he will not outright condem it. That is probably the main obstacle in London voter's minds. Consider that 3 young males who attended mosques left London together a couple years ago and 2 of them took part in a terrorist attack on a gas facility losing their lives. The 3rd male was charged with terrorism and was held in jail until recently let out and returned here.
Did anyone ask him about his stand on Sharia? I read the LFP all the time and I never read that he was asked about that. Never.
I think the “obstacle” in some voters minds in London is two fold. First those who don’t like Muslims at any cost……..and then there are those who don’t…..let me rephrase that…….who hate..... Hudak. The comments that I read in the LFP when it came to this election and believe me there has been a LOT! …..never once was Sharia mentioned but the dislike for Hudak was rabid, even by Conservative voters.
Neither has his wife got anything to do with Sharia. You’re bouncing all over the place about her. First you said it was her stand on Israel and now you bring up Sharia.
They didn't consider that dirty politics could enter into it and upset the process.
Dirty politics? Well dirty or not (I suppose it’s become the norm these days) all that I heard from the main three candidates was “get rid of the Liberals” over and over and over again………but when it came to actual answers about jobs, Ontario in general etc etc etc etc ….NONE of the candidates had one good reply…….zip, nada, ziltch! And once again the media was playing the main three parties and little if any time was given to other parties that were also in the election. The media…….especially any newspaper associated with the Sun dynasty was promoting the CONs like they were the second coming…..and they are…the second coming of the Mike Harris regime.
Many here are of the opinion that a husbands drunk driving charge did our previous mayor in a few years ago and we now have a mayor facing criminal charges.
Oh Please!!!!!!! DiCicco was on her way out anyhow, her husband was after the fact and…..only small minded people felt he had any influence over the election. To her credit, she stood beside him because she felt marriage was the most important (it's a Catholic thing) and with a bit of luck he has learned his lesson in spades for not just what he did to himself but how much he embarrassed his wife and family. He was stupid, made a stupid mistake.......end of story.
The people are tired of the Conservatives and ticked off with the Liberals. NDP are what's left. That doesn't mean they were a 'third' choice, it means the people are believing in the NDP and the legacy of Jack Layton. Now all the NDP have to do is show the people they were not wrong. It's that simple.
"the NDP will never get elected as the governing party"
I remember hearing that a few decades ago.
Then Bob Rae came along in 1990 to defeat David Peterson and form a majority NDP government.
In politics, one should never say "never".
"The big problem with the Ontario PC party is Hudak."
I agree. He is trying too much to be a second Mike Harris.
The big losers in Ontario yesterday were the Liberals. That was expected. They lost three of five seats.
The winner was the NDP capturing two seats.
As far as the Conservative seat in Etobicoke, it is difficult to gauge how much of that was a vote for the Conservative Party and how much was a referendum on the Ford municipal administration.
These four older ladies who lived in Ukraine
Always sat outside together near the church
And chatted about when they were younger.
One month ago they pooled their money together
And bought a laptop.
Never having been, but having heard all about Florida ,
They just happened to click on St. Augustine , FL.
They read about the "Fountain of Youth" claimed by
The Spaniards when they arrived there.
They collected up all they had left and sent for four
Bottles of the water.
As soon as it arrived, they drank as directed.
The rest of this story will make you a believer, because
Here they are today...................
No.......This is TRUE! Really!
