Animal Alliance Environment Voters Party of Canada

The Animal Alliance Environment Voters Party of Canada is a ruse meant to circumvent Canadian law against third-party endorsements of registered political parties during an election campaign. For American Flea-readers, this would be something like, say, the Audubon Society forming an independent political party so it could support a Democratic presidential candidate. Moonbatologists may be fascinated to watch an election spot featuring party leader and sole candidate, Liz White plus some baby seals, seal clubbers and dramatic piano. We are meant to vote NDP, apparently. Thank goodness we have the Animal Alliance Environment Voters Party of Canada to encourage our democracy to do "what is right" instead of what the electorate wants.

In democracies, where a politician's career depends on being elected, policy decisions are not based primarily on what is right, but on what will win votes at the local, constituency level, no matter how environmentally destructive.
