[22:30:46] <exec> 08└─I remember reading about an Italian railway director who had been given a life-long pass by Mussolini. He lived on trains for about 20 years after he retired. I should think it takes some clever organising to be on a sleeper train every night without spending hours waiting around in stations.

Looks like it will be an NDP (very left of center/socialist-ish) government next: my problem is do i vote Green party to give them a boost again this year, or vote NDP to make sure Harper does NOT get in. Once Trudeau gets out from under...

[22:30:53] <exec> 08└─This elections puts a lot of Canadians in a tough position. I think many of us are sick of the stong-arm tactics of the Harper government. The other options aren't all that great though... I'm tired of living under the oppressive Harper Regime, so I'll be strategic voting this election.

[22:30:55] <exec> 08└─That sounds exactly like me. Green for the past couple of elections, but the Conservatives must go. I'm completely amazed that *anybody* would consider voting for the conservatives; they're effectively a fascist organization. I do know a few though, and they seem to be the "safety at any cost crowd"...
