your going to be stuffed in the same gulag by voting PPC your conscience won't get you a better cup of shit to drink. In my riding it makes more sense to put up a LPC sign and give a token donation to them and possibly show up at a rally and introduce myself. The LPC candidate will win my riding, they will be the member of parliament, and when I need their help on applying for a federal tax relief program for my business them recognizing me has value.
The PPC offers me nothing. They don't offer me a clean conscience because right now they are in the say anything to get support category where none of the policies they suggest need to ever be implemented.
If you own a business in and live in Saint-Léonard—Saint-Michel for instance you might as well vote liberal regardless of your belief in the party. It is a safe liberal seat which has existed for 10 elections and has voted liberal 10 out of 10 times with a staggering majority. You are better off giving your maximum donation each year and voting for whoever the hell is the LPC. I would suggest setting a meeting to give the check directly to the MP in person. If they hold a pay for your plate dinner I suggest buying a plate and bringing the wife and dressing up and being as friendly as possible.
Ultimately pissing on the guy/girl gets you nothing. Greasing the wheel in this case will simply get you more direct benefit. I have applied for government grants for renovations in past and having an MP on side makes life about a million times easier and will more than pay for the donations in the long run. I've needed an MP to act on my behalf in regards to a dispute with Canada Customs regarding a provision related to safety gloves that were partially manufacture in Canada. The difference between the 2 designations would easily pay for a lifetime of donations to the crap party. I have also had an MP advise me on an accountant to use when applying for Research and Development tax credits which effectively let me increase salaries on my team by about 10%.
If I for instance lived in Battle River—Crowfoot I have no reason at all to ever give a penny to the Liberal Candidate. The chance of them winning and representing me is effectively 0. They can give me exactly nothing and I'm better off supporting the CPC candidate as they will win even if they stand on a stage with their dick out pretending they are a helicopter. When they are elected and not part of the party in power I can still get help from them on several things and at least 30% of the time they will even be part of the party in power.
If I live in a swing riding like for instance Kitchener—Conestoga there is value in me picking a favorite in each election based on which party I believe is going to win and taking my chances on picking right.
In none of these circumstances does it ever make sense for me to donate to the NDP, the Greens or the PPC. As the chance of them getting elected is low and their chance of being part of the party in power is exactly 0 my donation can't possibly purchase me any benefit.
My vote is inconsequential as nobody knows what it is in any case so I can't use it to my advantage but my donations are public and absolutely purchase me favour and benefits.
This is why the NDP and the Greens can't raise shit all nothing come election time. Idiots donate 20's businessmen donated the maximum and its good business to do so.
There is no circumstance I can see in Canada where voting PPC is in your benefit other than to pat yourself on the back regardless of what their platform is.
