In case you havn't been fallowing the embattled minister responsible for the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver, you may not know that members of the NDP are trying to have him recalled for crossing the floor from the opposition, to sit with the government.
In David Emersons riding, the NDP think that they can win if it goes to a recall. So needless to say they are working hard to run a smear campaign. The liberals are too disorganized, the Conservatives are the ones who are embroiled in the controversay. So that leaves the NDP. UGH!
Well I've got news for the NDP. The Electorate vote for the person NOT the Party. It appears on the surface that we do vote for the party, and hence the party leader to be the Prime Minister, but that is not the way it actually works.
It is the governor general of Canada, who represents the Soverign (The Queen) who selects the prime minister. Who normally comes from the party with the most seats.
So in short, vote for the person next time, and not the party!
