    Question Do you vote?

    Yes, for me voting is a priviledge and very important. Our country is having an election on the 23rd of this month. I'll be out early voting.

    Every election-- even if it's "just" the local road commisoner election.

    Many people died /are fighting- to give me the priviledge to vote- I don't want that to be in vain. . . . . .

    Wouldn't miss it ever. It's a hard won priviledge. This election is unusual in that it's happening over Christmas and it's the most laid back in recent history (saying a lot for my country which is pretty laid back and calm to begin with about most things). it's coming into the home stretch now, and we still aren't seeing much happening locally in regards to meetings or signs or debates.

    I'm looking forward to this next English language debate from Montreal. (yes our leaders all debate in both official languages-- English and French set on different nights with different issues and translations provided for listeners of the other official language so French listeners hear the English debate translated and vice versa)

    Every single time I can. You can't complain if you don't vote. (Not that I'm a complainer, but you know what I mean.) It enrages me when people pi$$ and moan, only to find out that they didn't even bother to vote. At least when I do it, I know I tried to make a difference!

    It's so good to see that people vote. We are so lucky to be in countries that allow free vote.
