Article content ABSENTEE BALLOT Recommended Videos After nine years of desperately trying to vote the Liberals out of power, I finally have a last chance. Last chance because if the Liberals win, it’ll be death to Canada. I’m a snowbird for medical reasons, and requested a voting package from Elections Canada as soon as they were available.

They can’t guarantee it’ll arrive in time for me to send it back. As a disabled senior, I’m appalled by this. My chance to support the Conservatives might not get there in time to be counted.



How effective the Liberals’ policy was. Brad DerHoven (Have faith it will be there so you can have your voice heard) NO MORE LIBERAL RULE Voting again for the “Trudeau” Liberals defies rationale. Over a near decade in power they have been turning Canada into a shadow of its once great self.

Mark Carney is just a different face; he was part of the Trudeau government, supporting the same disastrous policies, and is surrounded again by the same people. Liberal rule has resulted in our great country being in the position it now is in: Vulnerable to the threat south of us. Lack of investment in our military, our economy, defence spending, and our hard-working people; overtaxation and massive misspending has created this mess.

Another four years of the same may just be our ultimate undoing. It’s imperative that we not let that happen. I am a very proud Canadian and love my country! “Elbows Up,” absolutely; we must protect ourselves and participate in this great movement — however, we also need a purposeful and strong prime minister to be part of it, and that is definitely not another Liberal one.
