One quick comment

Ok I think the 'law & order' platform of the Conservatives is kind of stupid. But i was thinking the other day that it is kind of funny to see a party based largely in rural Canada complaining about 'Big City' crime. The Conservatives have few if any seats in the big cities where most of Canada's crimes take place. They hold mostly rural seats. I think almost all the seats they have in Ontario are rural seats.

They brought in David Emerson (Vancouver) and Michel Fortier (Montreal) were brought in to try and add some voices from the cities. I guess Harper didn't feel the need for any representation from Toronto, since only Liberals are there anyways.

Still i think it's pretty funny. The other thing is this whole Law & Order thing is going to be way too expensive and have no impact on crime.

Interesting...Just a thing that I noticed is that no one seem to care about law and order or violent crime until the boxing day shooting on yonge st. All parties sadly used it to their advantage for their own political agendas
