Canadians… Vote!
Posted on May 2nd, 2011 2 commentsGuess what time it is in Canada, boys and girls? That’s right, it’s election day and time to vote for the next prime minister.
Don’t know who to vote for? Don’t know what political party lines up with your values? Fear not, the CBC and U of T have come to the rescue with Vote Compass. Spend a minute answering questions and you just might be surprised to find you are lined up with a different party than you first thought! Craziness!
As the Air Farce once said, “Vote early and vote often.”
Oh, and if you want to relate this to writing you could use the vote compass to help develop a character and their liberal or conservative values. Yeah, that’s right… life always comes back to writing.

Love Air Farce!!
It does always seem to sneak back to writing doesn’t it?
Okay, I voted on the way home from work, so I’m off to see how close my compass is to my vote! -
Jean, it is so important to vote. I haven’t missed an election since… I think I’ve never missed voting in any election. And you’re right – everything (including voting) comes back to writing. In fact, if you ‘people watch the voters’ you’ll find some great ideas for characters!
