Once again...

In the 2004 election, Laurie Hawn described this at a forum in Westmount as the one thing we actually agree on for once. He was right then and he's right now.

I've met a lot of apathy at the tens of thousands of doors I have visited over the past two-and-a-half years; and I occasionally get very direct in my advice to them. The odd one gets a little angry at me for that; but if it makes them angry enough to get off the couch and vote for anyone, that's okay.

My personal favorite was the lady who said, "Well I like Liberals, so f*** off!" Slammed the Door in my face, pinning the leaflet I was holding in her door frame at which point I heard an audible "Prick!" As she snatched the leaflet through the frame. Let's just say I didn't try to sell her a PC membership.

Well said Laurie. On January 23rd, get off your damn ass and vote.
