The two best-looking, youngest politicians in Canada dating is going to be such fabulous publicity for the beleaguered Harper-led conservatives. I wonder if they could run for Prime Minister jointly :D

Even though im a Liberal member, I want one of these two to lead the Conservative party of canada. Hell id even support a Red tory government if they commited themselves to balancing the books. What a nice couple, I wonder if belindas kids will like him.

The libreral's record for keeping the budjet under control is hard to beat; I dunno why you're looking to the conservatives for balanced books. I'll be voting NDP for the foreeable future, but heck, I'd love to see the conservative party move on from the same-sex tunnel-vision and into a new era with one of these two young'uns.

They've posted solid surpluses for the last several years and succeeded in turning a recession around in the nineties- their fiscal policy has been pretty solid, and they got the debt under control. Nothing earth-shattering, but props to Paul, (and Jean, who I'm an undieing fan of)

Now i see why you hate the liberals, you were probably int the crowd when trudeau shot them all the bird. But if your a conservative???? then why wouldn't you applaud one of his more memorable quotes "They [the unemployed] need to get off their ass and get a job!" I don't like every prime miniter, but i will ask you not call the prime minter a fuck. He did write the charter you know.
