  • My results:

    Jack Layton---- 100
    Gilles Duceppe-- 88
    Paul Martin----- 69
    Stephen Harper- 31

    I think it was rigged a little bit... At the very least, "100" does not mean I agree with everything Layton says on those issues... Unless he supports more military spending and abolishing the gun registry.

    Well, I'm still voting for Anne.

        About 32%, at least that's the level of support for the Conservatives according to latest polls.

          Some of the questions are wacko. How do you answer: Increase spending on military equipment or provide adequate funding for peacekeeping role? The government needs to spend more money on military equipment to achieve adequate funding for peacekeeping role.

            The NDP are saying that more money should be spent on the military.

              Good. I like being pleasantly surprised!

              • I put myself down for a moderate increase in military spending too.

                • Same here. Harper is going nuts with his spending promises without thinking. We need helicopters, but we don't need helicopter carriers. And do the Forces need tanks?

                  Harper just wants a larger military without thinking about the Forces will be doing.

                    Of course we do. What else can we use to run over protesters during the next Canadian WTO conference?

                        • Interesting how so many of us are so strongly against Conservative policies while the conservatives here (Ben and NYE) show support for NDP policies.
