Stephen Harper Quotes

Dear fellow Canadians

I don't know which dismays me more:
*40% non turnout of eligible voters
or
*Harper winning a "majority" with 60% of voters opposed?

Either way, as I slowly start to emerge from the immediate shock of May 03, I have decided that more education, more involvement, is crucial. It is inconceivable to me that anyone with even a smattering of understanding, could chose to "not vote", or to chose to vote Conservative. So with that in mind, I am resolved to learn more myself; and to urge more of my fellow Canadians to get informed and get involved. We must stop taking the gift of our democracy for granted.

I'll post some of my own thoughts, and, as I am just learning myself, will share ideas I'm learning from others. With the access to internet, facebook, twitter - there is so much info available. No excuse not to become informed.

So, to start, I wonder how many Canadians have read this article about Stephen Harper Quotes? How could any thinking person, reading this, decide to vote for him, or decide not to vote?

Please read, and please comment. I will look forward to engaging in conversation and debate with you all. That's the joy and wonder of a democracy.
