Stephen Harper annoys me. He has this very unstable control issue, limiting the information and the language that is released from his government to the media. And not just that, but he has completely tainted Canada’s international reputation: half pulling out of Kyoto, continuing to fight in Afghanistan… By refusing to move this country forward, we have been lambassed by the UN for our lack of action on both indigenous rights and homelessness. Canada is no longer the Canada I once knew, and a lot of that is due to Stephen Harper.

But if there’s one thing worse than Harper, it’s my personal frustration towards Stephane Dion. Ever since the leadership convention, Dion has become a political toy, and lacky for the Liberals. He has become incompotent and his opinions no longer matter. By refusing to be a strong opposition and control the agenda, as Harper strategically did in the last election, Dion is letting the Conservatives destroy Canada. And they aren’t even a majority government yet!

Dion is absolutely despicable. He whined and complained about the throne speech, but wasn’t willing to actually stand up to it, because his pollsters say he wouldn’t win a minority government. Obviously not when he’s so bloody indecisive. Make a decision and stick with it. Either be the opposition leader Canada needs or get out.

The media made a fake fuss out of Canadians not wanting an election. Just like they are making “news” out of immigrants rights. Fuck the media - they don’t know shit. Learn to play the media. People can take less than an hour of their day to make one of the most important acts of democracy and freedom in our world. If Canadians don’t understand the concept behind such a *simple* act, then there’s something deeply wrong in this country.

Stupid Dion. He needs to be bold. He needs to bring the media’s focus back to what matters to Canadians; to what we need to do to regain our status as the best country in the world. The Greens know what it takes - they just don’t have the support, due to many different factors, include an antiquated electoral system. If Dion was smart, he would capitalize on the power of the Liberal party to initiate real, important change.

Jack Layton was once bold. Till he started playing political games with the Tories to kill the Liberals. And then he started spouting off on bank charges. That is not the responsibility of the federal government. There’s bigger things going on in the world than minimal surcharges.

People want bold leaders with true visions. Leaders that are willing to stick up for their ideas and not simply bend and twist for the political machine. Sam Sullivan is not a bold leader. Dianne Watts is not a bold leader. Carole James definitely is not a bold leader.

Where the f**k are the leaders?!

There’s a reason Pierre Trudeau, despite his tumultuous actions, is remember as one of the best and most important Prime Ministers in the history of Canada.

Who else wants the next Trudeau?
