POWER STRUGGLE

DECEMBER 3, 2008

You can't ignore the coalition talk that is all over the news today.

Without going all into it... Basically the leaders of Canada's 3 opposition parties, The Liberals, The NDP's, and The Bloc, want to form a government of their own and take down The Conservatives.  Stephane Dion would serve as our new Prime Minister.  This is being called a "backroom deal" since we are a democracy and Canadians haven't voted on a coalition government.

I'm not really "with it" when it comes to politics... So for people like me, who need someone to explain it to them in REAL terms, there are Facebook groups defending each side, and you can even find online petitions to sign within the groups.


This is if you're AGAINST the coalition:

This is if you're FOR the coalition:

I encourage you to look at both sides to better understand what's happening in a time that's being called "historic" for our country.
