Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
What is wrong with the sprite generator?
Hmmm, the chewy half cooked awsomeness of teh guestbook. I haven't been here forever.
how's life in the univers?
"Yes, we did, but tht means that they'd overpower the Conservatives WITHOUT A VOTE"
No! No it doesn't! People elect the members of parliament: they have no control over what they do; they must simply trust that they will do as promised. If two parties think it is in the best interests of their voters, there is nothing stopping them from forming a majority government.
You elect MPs, trusting them to represent you in parliament. The parties these MPs belong to decide it's in their best interests to form a coalition. They do so. Sure, you didn't vote for it directly, but if you want a direct vote on everything you will get nowhere fast.
SWEET. I cannot wait for Platinum. :3 So. An update is always good. ^^
The Liberals didn't lose; Stephan Dion did. The Liberals themselves didn't want to push the carbon tax; but Dion did anyway. If he hadn't, then the Liberals probably would have increased their chances of winning.
Yes, we did, but tht means that they'd overpower the Conservatives WITHOUT A VOTE. It almost wants you to say, "What was the point of voting, if the parties WE DIDN'T ELECT are now going to overpower the Conservatives? We voted, doesn't our vote matter?
Neat little fact: Alberta is most proud of Canada, Quebec is least. No duh.
Canada is most proud of:
1. Our flag.
2. Our military.
3. Hockey!
Canada is least proud of:
1. Parliament.
2. Royal government.
I've never heard that about Le Bloc. All I've heard was that they wanted to separate from Canada, and quite frankly I don't like that idea.
And yeah, I don't understand why we put Stephen Harper back in charge. I thought for sure Liberals were going to win… v_v
Well, no, there was a vote. You voted in the elections, and you elected the members of parliament from different parties. If two of these parties want to form a coalition, it's perfectly within their power to do so - you elected the MPs, now they're going to do the politicking.That's just how it works.
Whee, an update!
Normally, there's nothing wrong with a coalition. The problem, is that if the coalition is formed, the party would immediately overpower the Conservatives, WITHOUT a vote.
But my point is Le Bloc WOULDN'T be in the coalition. Just Liberals and NDP. Le Bloc just support it, so that they have enough votes in parliament.
And yeah, I understand your point, but in politics compromise is a necessity, and if two parties together can form a majority government and one party alone can't, then they should go for it. Otherwise you get Belgium.
Yes, the Liberals want to form a coalition with the NDP and Le Bloc (shoot, I did spell it wrong…) One of the reasons with politics, is that there's always a huge dispute if you announce your party of choice. I have nothing against Le Bloc, except that I don't like how they want to split up Canada, and how they're "separatists" or "sovereigns". The main problem of this coalition, is that because the Conservatives did not get a majority, that if the Liberals and the NDP's join, then they would immedietely overthrow the Conservatives without a vote. That is the main problem with this coalition. Personally, I hate all politicians; it's just who I hate the least that I support.
At school, we were talking about Utopian societies. We brought up one about a place called, "Victory City". I personally think that everyone should check out this link:
Victory City
What do you think?
I was reading a book, and it said that Iceland has had only one robbery in it's history. Go Iceland! Whoop!
I found this really cool game! It's called "Oilgarchy"! If any one has played the McDonalds game, you'll love this!

Tangela for spammifier! Personally, I think it's an Oddish that's covered in vines!
Wow. Long post.
HELLO WORLD!
First of all, a coalition is not a joining of two parties. It is an alliance, so to say, of two or more parties who wish to attain a majority in parliament but cannot do so on their own. I should note that coalition government is the norm in probably a majority of countries.
And, as a quick crash course in Canadian politics tells me, the Bloc Quebecois are not nearly as bad as you make them out to be - and anyway, they wouldn't be in a coalition (they'd only support it). The actual government would be composed of the Liberals and the NDP, both of which I hear are quite good, so far as political parties go. Also, stop complaining. You guys had an awesome government until you put the conservaties back in charge wtf.
Le Blok? Are you serious?! They want to join with Le Blok? That's the most absurd idea I've ever heard! Silly Liberals… you're just flushing yourself down the drain by doing that. Ugh, our government is screwed up. Lucky Americans and their Obama… See, this is why I like NDP and the Green Party. …Yeah, I'm from Canada, too. No funny accent or igloos.
By the way, have you ever watched Air Farce, Typhloise? Best. Political. Comedy. Ever. It's a shame they're just finishing their last season. Last episode's on New Years, by the way! Oh, and Rick Mercer's decent.
And yeah, you're probably the only preteen in the world to like politics. Yes, you spelt "Le Blok" right.
Okay. As most of you know, I reside in Canada. And since Canada is a democracy, there are four parties: Liberals, Conservatives, NDP (New Democratic Party), Green, and Le Blok (I think I spelled that right…) One of the main parties, the Liberals, wants to create a coalition; which basically means it will combine with another party. The Liberals want to join with Le Blok. The problem is, Le Blok's main goal is to split Canada into two countries: Canada and Quebec.
I am the ONLY pre-teen in the world to like politics?
I'm asking Ranger 2 for Christmas.
Wow, props to you, EeveeSkitty. You managed to post between a double post. That takes some skill! (I remember a while back someone managed to post exactly on midnight…My memory is weird =S)
I finished Shadows of Almia last night, with a game play time of 19:28 and an ownership time of 10 days! The latter is five times longer than the original. Much better.
