Be a part of the process - get out there and VOTE! This is your chance to be heard.
I saw lots of signs on front lawns when I was driving around this weekend, so let's get out to the polling stations and mark an 'X'.

I voted on my way to work this morning. Took all of 90 seconds. Now I too can bitch about the outcome.

I would, but they won't let me
Still, I promise not to bitch about it, but I do make a good listener for those who like to bitch...
Still, hopefully something interesting happens so that Canadians can actually get themselves a 100% working government again.

Was she a 'listener' or a 'bitch'? I'm uncertain...

Maybe started out as the first and ended up as the second?

Not sure, but it sounds like you mean a majority Gov...? There really is something to be said for a minority - less draconian and, historically, such a set up has led to legislation many of us now take for granted - like access to medical care for all - even poor people!
The guys with the minority have to actually talk to and deal with their competitors, where with a majority they can, and always do, pretty much run rough shod over everyone else... And just to keep this deli-relevant, we drove to the polls this morning in our bus!
