It has been pointed out that I tend to have a negative stripe on this blog. I can’t deny it. I think that most of it is because politics is so frustrating. It’s like that magic trick theory: distract them with one hand so they don’t see what the other is doing. We get it from all leaders of all parties. Understandably, too. Why point out the deficiencies in one’s plan?

The word “change” is being kicked around in Alberta as much as it is in the States right now. People want a change. Or do they? The better question is, do they know what they want to change to?

You wouldn’t change out of your clothes without knowing what you were changing into. It’s as simple as that, but that’s not how we vote in Alberta, or Canada for that matter.

It’s important that you vote, but you have to vote FOR a party. Voting Liberal because you don’t like the the way the PCs are neglecting Calgary isn’t right. Vote Liberal because you like what they stand for. That’s what voting should be.
