re: re:The petition

I received the following in the e-mail today.
What do you think, should I sign it?

Would it be to our benefit to have a government that was not elected through the proper procedure?

The Petition
PETITION TO THE MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT OF CANADA:
WE, THE UNDERSIGNED RESIDENTS OF CANADA, draw the attention of the House to the following:
THAT in the recent federal election concluded October 14th, 2008 Canadian voters provided the Conservative Party with a clear and strengthened mandate to lead Canada through the current global economic crisis.
THAT the opposition are looking to impose an unstable, unelected Liberal-NDP-separatist coalition that during said election they promised they would not entertain, with the Liberal leader expressly rejecting such a move as being bad for the economy.
THAT Canadians have the democratic right to choose who will govern them and not have a surprise Prime Minister chosen through an unseemly and undemocratic backroom deal.

THEREFORE your petitioners call upon Members of Parliament to oppose any political arrangement that would replace Her Majestyʼs democratically elected government without first consulting Canadians in an open and democratic election.

Sign the petition at:
