What Kind Of Mucous You Get When You're Turned On

This week has been very lively in politics here in Canada. For those who are not familiar with the political situation in Canada, trartaré to make a small summary of what happens, from my point of view.

In Canada there are 4 political parties. The Conservative Party led by Stephen Harper as prime minister, who despite being a minority is the minority unless the minority (good twister, no?) and is therefore currently in power. Follow the Liberal Party led by Michael Ignatieff. Then there is the Bloc Québécois led by Gilles Duceppe, who defends the interests of Quebec at the federal level. And finally there is the New Democratic Party Jack Layton NPD.

What happened this week was that Prime Minister Stephen Harper introduced his proposed budget, which was rejected by Parliament, which prompted a call for early elections for May. Stephen Harper accused the Liberals, the Bloc Quebecois and the NDP to form an alliance to defeat him. Faced with this accusation, Ignatieff was quick to say that there has been nor will there be a connection with the Bloc Québécois, because he knows that if he can creeen liberal alliance with the Quebec Liberals surely punish themselves at the polls.

is good to clarify that the Bloc Québécois is a party that works at the federal level but has a vote only in Quebec, since it aims only party seeking independence for the province. It's just obvious to think that Canada's Liberals would rather an alliance of his party with Quebec separatists. This has been used by Harper to accuse the Liberals and Bloc Québécois have uan hidden agenda and lie to their followers. Is say, Harper suggests that liberals and Quebecers whether they should be allies but do not tell that to voters. Ultimately, the conservatives want to push the vote against a possible alliance with Quebecers could trigger a possible new referendum on Quebec.

What will happen? I think that will happen about the same as in 2008, that is, the conservatives will continue to be minority but can not make a coalition to defeat Stephen Harper, so I think he will continue as prime minister of Canada.

Finally, I find it curious how it is done here in political advertising television. Most ads of the political parties are engaged in attacking the other candidates rather than highlight their own. For sample I leave these ads that are currently happening on television. (It also left some of the elections of 2008).
