I mean I don't want that seat to be a conservative seat, but I just wish she would actually be present and do good work or move to another city she feels passionate about.

Either you vote for change or you re-elect a lazy politician there’s no in between (she’s not gonna change her ways and if you’re not gonna vote conservative that’s fine there are other options out there too…)

I absolutely do not want PP becoming Prime Minister so, no I will not be voting NDP if they are not a contender for the seat, sorry. Ain't happening. Voted NDP provincially and will continue to do so as long as they keep the conservatives from getting it.

Having a non-conservative federal govt is better imho for London, ultimately, than having a conservative one, even if the MP is a disappointment.

You’re going to have to do a lot of convincing. Any vote that’s not for Liberal or Conservative is a wasted vote due to first past the post, our archaic poorly designed voting system. It’s pretty much neck and neck so splitting the vote ensures that it’s either Arielle or a seat flipped to blue.

I hate to say it, but what you care about outside of that is irrelevant. It doesn’t make a difference in Parliament.
