Halifax Politics...you'll be hearing a lot about this in the future...

We have a municipal election coming up in October and you know what, Halifax?



WE DESERVE BETTER!!

That's right, Halifax.  We deserve better.  We deserve politicians that have a vision, not just go along with the status quo.  We deserve people with a drive, not just someone that is there for the ride.  We deserve diversity, not just the usual career politician.  We deserve change, not the same shit we've had time after time.  And I think we've got a glimmer of hope.  We're going to get there, Halifax.  I KNOW it.

Do you know how I know it? Because we are finally seeing some REAL candidates emerge for this election in October.  Today local blogger, commentator, musician and instructor Waye Mason announced he'll be running on Pennunisular Halifax in October.  THERE IS HOPE! 

Now, I'm not saying run out and vote for Waye - you vote for whoever you want - but what I am saying is we're not just stuck with the career Peter Kellys, or the well I'll vote for X because they've been there for so long.  We're not stuck with whackjobs or people who aren't serious...REAL candidates are emerging.  Waye is just one.  Mike Savage is another.  We have REAL options now Halifax.  So get out there, get involved, learn what your politicians platforms are and for Jebus' sake get your ass out there and VOTE.
