With a week left in Canada’s federal election campaign, the Conservative Party is ahead in the Vancouver Island riding of Cowichan—Malahat—Langford, a new Research Co. poll has found.

In the mixed mode survey of a representative sample of eligible voters in this constituency, 36% of respondents say they will cast a ballot for Conservative candidate Jeff Kibble, while 29% would support incumbent MP Alistair MacGregor of the New Democratic Party (NDP).

Eligible voters in this constituency are more likely to prefer a federal government headed by Mark Carney.

Heard they were leading in the north end of the island also. Conservatives taking ridings on the island is unheard of.

In reality it will be an orgy for the billionaire class to enslave even more people than they have already done.

Who is enslaved? All I see is people working for money. If I were assembling automobiles for pay and benefits, should I resent the people who make it possible?

It's repeat criminals who are clogging up the justice system. If criminals were kept behind bars longer there would be less stress on the court system. Less stress on the court system means they don't have to make weak deals meaning criminals will get longer sentences.

We are feeling the effects. Our population has risen somewhat significantly in the last two months. A lot are on remand, playing the waiting game.

Again it plays to what I’ve been saying is happening in southern Ontario- they are taking votes from the NDP.

My union voted to support the local Conservative candidate in the election, and as a Steelworkers union that is traditionally very strong NDP territory.

I don’t know if you like Moose on the Loose podcast, but this episode is pretty good. He is making some good points and appears to have the evidence.

I don’t think there is any disputing Poliviere's stance. It's been clear and concise since the very beginning, even before the election anytime it was mentioned in the House.

Yet we have carney vehemently accusing Poliviere of the opposite and going against the constitution to do it. Not even trying to be coy or slippery in his words. Just flat out lying in plain old french. What’s wrong with this guy and his constant lying?

My dad would tell you that the federal prisons are bursting at the seams. He is an interesting confluence of political ideals and beliefs.

I think we are feeling the effects of decades of poor infrastructure investment, from transportation to prisons' to the CAF to hospitals. I think the GoC Canadian citizenry needs to realize we have been spending to much on our wants (social spending) and not enough on our needs.
