If the idea of Stephen Harper selecting the next three Supreme Court justices and thus inserting his right-wing ideology on Canadian society for generations isn’t enough of an incentive for progressives to vote in this election, then nothing will.
Harper’s potential influence on the Supreme Court hasn’t been discussed much during the campaign, mostly because all the oxygen has been used up by the litany of scandals that surrounds Harper and the Conservatives, not to mention Harper’s unprecedented contempt for Canadian parliamentary democracy.
As the NDP surges it’s more important than ever to vote strategically. Every progressive owes it to themselves and to future generations to go to Project Democracy to find out how to cast the best tactical and strategic vote to keep Harper and the Conservatives from gaining a majority.
