Most neighbours, even good ones, aren't usually willing to take on raw-nerve issues that could potentially generate misunderstanding, bewilderment or fear. Just try mentioning "terrorism," "radicalization," or "jihadist" as topics for a friendly discussion.

"I would propose that there are, or should be, three decisive issues in the upcoming federal election: (1) electoral fraud; (2) Medicare; and (3) Bill C-51," said Michael Keefer in a recent interview with The Canadian Charger, "Consideration of these three issues leaves us, by a process of elimination, with two choices in English Canada: the New Democratic Party and the Green Party.

Elsewhere I would recommend supporting the NDP, which has a realistic chance of forming the next government--perhaps even with a parliamentary majority."

And in mid-May, an EKOS Research poll showed that the Liberal Party has for the first time since Justin Trudeau became leader two years ago slipped below the Conservative Party. Meanwhile the NDP have gained enough support to make the race for the October federal election a virtual tie, with just three points separating the Conservatives, the NDP, and the Liberals.
