Rural VS Urban Fear VS Hope

Just my thought's on why the CPC didn't pick up any seats in the urban ridings.

Urban ridings have a large proportion of immigrants. Immigrants from generally speaking who come from war torn or corrupt government and regime governed countries. As such these Immigrants have a fear of change in government. Never having lived in a true and fair democratic country they fear change and anything to do with the military or an increase in the military. On top of that these immigrants may not have a firm grasp of the english language especially the older ones so. So a message of fear is easier to get across than the intricacies of good governance policies.

I saw this when doing UN tours they even fear soldiers wearing the UN Blue. Maybe it was just the guns they feared but the fact remains they have this underlying fear of soldiers and anything to do with the military or increased policing because even the polie in these countries are corrupt and are an extension of the corrupt rulers.

I must say Prime Minister Harper did a wonderful job in his acceptance speech addressing these fears and highlighting his agenda for his time in office. I look forward to the coming years and the changes that PM Harper is about to implement.

Congratulations one and all who have so selflessly donated their time to public office! Whether they have won lost or had a draw they should be commended for their interest in their fellow man.
