Upcoming election

Just heard the NFUs Grant Robertson be his usual articulate self on the Bryan Allen show on CKNX this morning. He was a candidate once I think too.

Got me thinking about who from the farm community might be running if we have an election and who we should maybe be encouraging to run.

Any suggested names?.

I am I the only one that thinks a federal election right now is a real waste of time and money????

I will not vote for the party that forces the election - get along and get to work Harper and Iggy...

The economy needs everyone's focus and attention.......quit screwing around.
