My letter to Her Excellency Michaelle Jean, PM Harper, and scumbag Dion/Layton:

To Her Excellency Michaelle Jean, Prime Minister Harper, Mr. Dion, and Mr. Layton,

It is with great disgust and much anger that I am writing to protest against the dirty political ploy put together by the Liberals and the NDP.

I will be quite frank here – when Canadians from coast to coast headed to the polls on October 14, 2008, we have spoken as a whole and voted for the Conservative Party to be our biggest political representatives in the House of Commons. Following our proud nation's long standing democratic traditions, this also means we, as Canadians, have voted for the Conservative Party to lead a minority government on Parliament Hill with the Conservative Party leader, Mr. Stephen Harper, as our Prime Minister. The matter has long been settled – for a good month and a half, Canadians from coast to coast (and this includes members of the Liberal Party and the NDP) have all agreed to honour and respect the results of the federal election and recognize Mr. Harper as our Prime Minister.

Had the Liberals and the NDP wanted to form a coalition government and elect Liberal leader, Mr. Stephane Dion, to be Canada's Prime Minister instead, they should have proposed the plan to Her Excellency, Michaelle Jean immediately following the election. Such a proposal would have deviated from the traditional process of Canadian elections, but at least the sore losers' salvage attempt could be disguised as a fresh political revival to our age-old system.

But time for such opportunities has passed. To call for a Liberal-NDP coalition government to replace the Conservative minority, and to replace Mr. Harper with Mr. Dion as the Prime Minister, is a blatant insult to Canada's long-standing democratic process. After all the political bickering and gesturing, and given all the backroom political dealing and scheming that have been revealed, it is plainly obvious that the Liberal Party and the NDP have no regard for the goods and interests of Canada in their minds. Their only concern is to shamelessly satisfy their lust for power, Canada be damned!

As the Opposition to our minority government, the Liberal-NDP coalition is bestowed with the power to overthrow the Conservative minority government via a vote of (no) confidence. In light of that, I welcome the Liberal-NDP coalition to exercise their right to a no confidence vote. But, following such votes of (no) confidence, the proper procedure under the Canadian democratic process dictates that Her Excellency, Michaelle Jean, must dissolve parliament and call for a new federal election.

Instead of relying on slimey backroom dealings and dirty political scheming to decide who forms our parliament and who serves as our prime minister, I know that nation-wide, Canadians will accept nothing less than the open and fair democratic system that has dutifully served us for over 140 years.

I urge fellow LYKs to look at what is happening on Parliament Hill, and think for themselves that should a new federal election come again, who would you vote for and why you would vote for him and his party.

Politics and democracy is about choosing the lesser of the two (or three) evils.

係呀，果班ottawa人淨係識玩政治，
絕對唔識真正關心經濟民生囉。
不過我唔信Liberal同NDP 合作得成功喎，
到左關鍵既時刻，佢地自然會鬼打鬼。
呢個就係加拿大勒。

Still remembered really clearly to our LOVELY DION said after the next date of the election Oct 14, 08. said he and his party will fully support the Conservative Party Mr. Harper because of the World Crisis. Before he, Mr. Dion said he won't step down from Liberal Party even lost from the election and... few days after he said he will step down and let The Liberal to have another leader. Suddenly.... couple weeks after his promised amd now he may be the leader of the Opposition Group and to be our NEW PM? Comeon, what a joke and what a lier!!  To be honest, DO U THINK WE CAN TRUST?

eee!  Are you really the original Lik gor??? I think so.. no other LYK would write such letter la.. at least no one did since u last wrote a letter about the Tibet incident.  Anyways, so surprised to see you coming back!  Welcome back.

anyways, i doubt ur letter will have any effect. coz governor is just a symbolic leader. she doesn't have real power to say no to Layton+Dion, unless she wants another King-Byng affair. I think you should send it to the Bloc.
