That really turned my stomach hearing he got himself elected.

The part that amazes me is how he considers himself a Conservative. He seems very controlling aka Liberal to me..

He's an opportunist like most politicians these days, Liberal or Conservative... The Liberals were after him too but he decided his best bet to remain at the public trough was as a Conservative.

Yet, he won by just over 1,000 votes.

To that man, being elected is all that matters.

A one thousand vote "victory" means the same to him as ten thousand vote "victory"; he feels "appointed, and anointed". The fact that so many voters tried to keep him from a position of power does not occur to a conceited individual such as he is.

My prediction: Zero to a senior cabinet position in 5.2 seconds.

It was imperative that the taxpayers send a message to the Liberals with their HST and other snied taxes they put through that we won't take it like sheep.
As taxpayers, we have to make a stand. What message would that have sent to the Liberals if we voted them back in?

Look, I don't like Fantino any more than any of you, but like I said, less of two evils.
