LETTERS: Why vote?

At the moment I can’t see voting in the coming election maybe some of your readers can help me out.

I’ll list why I don’t care for each party. The Conservative. party brought in the GST so I feel over time they cost me a lot of money. I can handle the tax on goods but am irate at paying tax on someone’s labor.

The Liberal party destroyed our judicial system. Trudeau felt it cost too much money to keep criminals in jail so reduce the jail time and have them walking around in society. In the 50s and 60s a murder once a year was the average. He also allowed railways to pull up the rails and sell all the free land they received and with that went a lot of good paying jobs.   The last NDP MP that represented me told me he didn’t care what his constituents wanted, he was our leader so we should just follow him.

Now the Green Party. Years ago chicken little ran around the barnyard telling all the animals the sky was falling down. Years later a politician ran around the world telling everyone the world was burning up and the first group, like the barnyard animals running around the world telling every one the world is burning up, was the Green Party.

When I step out side and the temperature is 90 to 100 degrees I know we can’t turn off the sun.
