Voter not interested in “one man show”

September 23, 2015 · 0 Comments

I attended the ALL candidates meeting for the Newmarket-Aurora riding last night and was witness to the pure cynicism and disdain of the public of Harper/Conservative politics.
While the Liberal (Peterson), NDP (Kelly) and Green (Long) candidates represented themselves and their parties ably and congenially, the incumbent Conservative MP did not even extend the courtesy of attending!
It would appear that news reports of muzzling of candidates by the unprogressive Conservative PMO are indeed accurate.
I will not vote for a “one man show” party where ministers are minions and backbencher candidates have little autonomy and virtually no influence on parliament.
