| I work in a field regarding environmental global policy for an agency and do outside consulting for various groups, corporations, and individuals. So, rather high. |

voting is compulsory here so i always rock up to get my name ticked off the roll. |
I always do a postal vote. taking the time out of my Saturday to stand in line and vote for people/parties I don't particularly like anyway. |

20 years of voting by post, zero issues. Federal, state, or local.

Agreed. Garbage in Garbage out. I hate our two party system, people vote their party line for the satisfaction that their side won, all the while both sides over promise or all out lie then under deliver, rinse and repeat. Probably doen't matter what political system is in place, seems to always end the same way. Yes we have the hollow comfort knowing it's better than Communism/Totalitarianism while the rich and powerful game the system and throw the shrinking middle class some table scraps. /rant |

| Our province is in an insane amount of debt, its pretty nuts. The only thing I really care that they do is improve the hospital system, It used to be much better many years ago. I believe most of the parties are doing something about it supposedly. |
