[edit]

Here's a few things the article doesn't say, and probably shouldn't:

1. most people will vote for the party they voted for last time, since our last election was very recent, and because of the effects of points 2 and 3;

2. most seats will fall into a geographical core-periphery trend, as always.

3. most people don't give a shit about the issues of this campaign, they are as interested in this election as a child is interested in hearing his parents scream at each other.

Our politicans have such unhuman characters. They began this campaign with the deteremination only to scream so loudly that they won't hear a single criticism.

Not that I have any better ideas. But at least I don't need to bring someone down to be cool, my friends!

POV Issues

[edit]

This article has been clouded by many POV statements throughout. In particular, there seems to be a strong bent toward the Conservative Party perspective. --GrantNeufeld 18:11, 20 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that the Conservative position is so often the one that's distinct from the other parties'. I think the appearance of bias is almost inevitable. --Llewdor 19:32, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

So, can we remove the POV tag now? Ground Zero | t 22:12, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite needed

[edit]

Entire article is now obsolete. -Joshuapaquin 20:14, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion

[edit]

I have removed the proposed deletion tag. Deletion was proposed on the basis that the article is not "obsolete" and because the article had not been edited for six months. There are lots of articles that have not been edited for six months. There is not a lot new to say about this event which, like so many events in history, is now completed. It was in need of a thorough revision to reflect the fact that it is now completed, and I have done that, although I invite others to continue to improve it. The 2006 election remains relevant as it was the basis of the government that Canada has today. An article discussing in depth the issues that affected the outcome of the election is worth havin on Wikipedia. If you still think it should be deleted, nominate it through the AfD process so that it can have a proper consideration. Thank you. Ground Zero | t 02:28, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is now compliance with WP:V. Many (perhaps most) of the statements on the page are generalizations that may be asserted by an observer of Canadian politics, but require backup when used in an encyclopedia. I could probably drop at least forty ‹The template Talkfact is being considered for merging.› [citation needed] messages all over this article, which is why I continue to be uncomfortable with its presence here. -Joshuapaquin 16:01, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
