Hi Everyone,
Tomorrow, Monday, We are electing a new prime minister and deciding
which party will come to power.
The Liberal party is equivalent to the U.s. democratic party, only more
liberal--gay marriage, abortion etc. etc.
The conservative party is somewhat like our republican party, proclaiming
respect for family values, religion, and the sanctity of life.
Just as in the states, the liberals run a hard fear campaign, telling
Canadians that if the conservatives win, there will be no more choice, sin,
etc.
The liberals have had to call this election because they were found out
for being in a large corruption scandall. This is the first time the
conservatives have had a chance to come close to governing in many years.
There is a party, more left than the liberals, who are socialist, and
another party, which promotes quebec separation from Canada.
Please pray for the Lord to have His way in this election. In Canada,
people are not aplauded for proclaiming their faith, religion is supposed to
just be a personal matter, here.
The media here is even more liberal than NPR, if you can believe it, and are
anti anything having to do with values.
There are pockets of believers in various pplaces across Canada, but
basically the country is proud to be multicultural, pagan, and
anti-christian.
Vinny
