YOU were the one that insinuated a widespread conspiracy by claiming voter suppression in my riding of Nipissing-Timiskaming (see the 2nd comment on this blog post). You clearly assume that because I do not share and/or embrace your opinion that I am in denial of so-called facts and that I am living under a rock. I’m sorry that it comes as a shock to you that some Conservatives do possess more than a Grade 8 education and are more than the knuckle-draggers that so many in the media portray us as. Believe it or not, many of us are evolved enough to actually think for ourselves and are immune to group-think. To that end, I will make the utmost effort to avoid the use of polysyllabic words lest you burst an artery. <br /><br />Assuming you haven’t already expired from a rage induced coronary, I have not denied that there is something fishy in Guelph. That is your feeble attempt to obfuscate the issue by assuming that a dissenting opinion thinks nothing unseemly happened anywhere. I have taken issue with your suggestion that there was voter suppression of any sort in my riding. So if you have ANY credible evidence, please share it here..........Elections Canada must already have it, so you cannot hide behind the veil of confidentiality or secrecy or whatever. To use a colloquial expression that many of us up here in Northern Ontario like: Put up, or Shut up!<br /><br />While I hate to engage in a battle of wits with an opponent that is unarmed, I simply must say that your ingenuous use of the murder analogy was incredibly amusing. Using your analogy, after finding a “bullet riddled body and discarded gun” in one location (Guelph), you have assumed that the same alleged killer (the CPC, based on your analogy) is a serial killer even though there are no other bodies or even missing persons reports. The Amazing Kreskin would be proud!<br /><br />By casually dismissing my argument that the Liberal Guns-in-our-Streets ad is also a form of voter suppression through calling it a “whine”, you have only revealed your own shallowness and single-minded agenda. Clearly the INTENT of this ad was to keep some voters from considering voting for the CPC. That is the very definition of voter suppression you claim to be defending. It doesn’t matter whether it was effective or not (gee, THAT sounds familiar, doesn’t it?). Do you think this ad in some way actually promoted voting FOR the LPC?<br /><br />And because it provides me with even further amusement, I’ll throw your own argument back at you: “I DON'T GIVE A FLY F*** “ whether you voted for “Creitien” , Martin, or Iggy, or what your response to the Gomery report was. Feel free to engage in your abusive and denigrating manner by suggesting that I lack ethics if that makes you feel superior, but you clearly have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. I have consistently demonstrated an extremely high level of ethics in my personal, professional, and political life. I can hold my head high knowing that I fought in the political arena as a candidate for what I genuinely believe in, rather than what I thought would get me elected.

Seriously, the CPC has to use major telemarketing business to merge that data.<br /><br />Using Canada 411 just ain't going to do the job.<br /><br />The phone lists came from inside one of the campaign election offices, whether it was a local riding access or higher up remains to be seen. Still even ignoring all that, there is the problem with targeting the voters political leanings. Sorry but no. the source is from one of the political parties.<br /><br />As for some CPC supporters getting phone calls, yep, that is to be expected, since the political metric that is used in system like CIMS isn't 100%. CIMS measuring metric is ranked from -15 too +15. If you pull a list with everyone who measures -15 to -5 there is still going to be some possible CPC supporters in that list. Statistically it is inevitable.<br /><br />I'm sure my CIMS metric is -15 in the CPC system ;) and the NDP and Libs too O_oZorpheoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09618889126077232837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-3438807558261019922012-03-07T12:34:47.958-08:002012-03-07T12:34:47.958-08:00I could get anyones phone number.

That type of access is not just handed out willy nilly.<br /><br />Archie, sure if that is way it happened (imo unlikely) sure whatever, the person who did it still committed serious crimes against our democracy and need to found and prosecuted!

It's just unfortunate that when we find out Pierre Poutine was a loyal "Liberal" soldier, nothing will be done, and the Media Party will suddenly suffer from a convenient case of mass amnesia.

Someone from the Guelph area used a "Burner Phone" and initiated a series of fracking phone calls posing as Election Canada (which is a crime in itself). These phone calls originated from the Rack-9 company out west. Do you really deny this didn't happen?<br /><br />By your *cough* logic, a murder hasn't taken place unless the killer has been found, Screw the bullet riddled body and discarded gun, you want to see evidence of the actual killer first before you'll believe there was a murder in the first place.<br /><br />And clearly you didn't get the point I made, I DON'T GIVE A FLY F*** WHAT PARTY THE CRIMINAL IS AFFILIATE WITH, IF ANY!!! They need to caught and prosecute to the fullest extent that the law allows.<br /><br />Ya to be honest, I think it was someone inside the CPC campaign (could a lone wolf acting one his own), but Paul firmly believes it maybe a Lib or just someone wanting to make the CPC look bad. Yet at least he has the ethical balls to admit that the crime happened and wants to see them punished. You on the other hand seem more worried about the CPC seat count. Pathetic<br /><br />As to your "Guns in our Street" whine, well that was a really stupid attack ad from the Liberals, still perfectly legal and is no where in the same ball park as criminal offence of voter suppression.<br /><br />Lastly, I never vote for Creitien or Martin and I didn't vote for Iggy either (and he was the liberal in my riding, Etob-South) And just to be crystal clear, when Gomery tabled his first report I called for the Liberals to resign and when Martin pulled the "let wait for the second report" I was calling for Martin's head.<br /><br />In closing sir, you are an ID10TZorpheoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09618889126077232837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-37661608093129855942012-03-06T21:27:54.942-08:002012-03-06T21:27:54.942-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Zorpheoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09618889126077232837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-42147544355644963702012-03-06T19:59:47.430-08:002012-03-06T19:59:47.430-08:00@ Zorpheous:

Otherwise, you are simply spouting the Harper-Hater venom of guilty-until-proven innocent. Based on the so-called evidence provided so far, I have just as strong a case if I argued that my neighbours' dog projected thoughts into the heads of voters making them vote for party X. <br /><br />I do find your following point of interest though: "It doesn't matter one rotting dingo's kidney whether the calls were effective or not. The intention behind the act is the bases for the criminal investigation."<br /><br />With selective memory, you obviously don't recall the 2006 leaked Liberal "Guns in our streets" ad. Otherwise, you would be calling for their heads.......EC has stated there is a 10 year limit, and this ad certainly scared the hell out of some recent immigrants who were eligible to vote. Based on your own position, if even one elector was scared by this ad and did not vote or changed their vote, or even if the Liberals hoped it would discourage potential Tory voters, then the Liberals are guilty of voter suppression. <br /><br />But as with so many other issues these days, all that matters is if a person is a "normal" average every-day Tory hating Canadian.Northern Ontario Torynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-13473883929504299772012-03-06T18:49:25.990-08:002012-03-06T18:49:25.990-08:00Well based on the OC article, both riding's (G...Well based on the OC article, both riding's (Guelph..

Interestingly enough, the NDP total increased by 2,199. Take a step back and give your head a shake ..... suggesting that Rota lost ONLY because of robo-calls is ludicrous. As for voter suppression ......800 MORE people voted in this election than the one in 2008.<br /><br />I would even put forth the idea that the CPC did better in 2011 because we ran a Conservative candidate, and not a former disgruntled Liberal who had previously lost a nomination to Rota.<br /><br />Your conspiracy theory is almost transparent, never mind thin!Northern Ontario Torynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-85424298342513109462012-03-06T18:05:35.643-08:002012-03-06T18:05:35.643-08:00Thanks for the link zorpheous.
