Politics, WTF

I know politics bores you but I feel like a hypocrite talking to you, you and your racist friend...

Having recently moved to Bolton I didnโ€™t have a voting card for the new riding. So, when I arrived to vote I had extra โ€˜paperworkโ€™ to take care of. Wellโ€ฆ I starting chatting a little with some of the Elections Canada officers and they needed to know where I moved from. Brampton I said. She replied,โ€™Oh.. moved, donโ€™t blame you, you must have been one of the only white people thereโ€ฆโ€™ Wha!?? Did I seriously just hear you say that? Well she said, โ€˜all those gangs and troubleโ€ฆโ€™ After she still didnโ€™t hear an ideological affirmation she back peddled slightly, โ€˜it is more the gangs than the people thereโ€ฆโ€™ Voting Conservative I take it? I figured Bolton was WASPy but openly racist? No. Wasnโ€™t expecting that. Gawdโ€ฆ Disappointing.

Equally disappointing is the projected Conservative minority government. Blah.
