When You're Jaded...

Soon, I'll be participating in a federal election, and I don't want to. There are two major contenders in modern Canadian politics (and a "third choice"), and I don't want any of them in charge. So I'm voting Communist. No, not for some euphamistic title like "Socialism", or "Neo-Marxism"; this election season, I'm seeing red....

So there's a bit of a rebelious streak in me, I guess. But really, here's what I like the least about voting in Canada: I don't actually want to vote for an agenda, or a party platform, or a set of promises, or even an ideal -- I want to vote for a leader. But all I get are politicians.
