Round Two. Vote now.

41 people voted so far in Round One and, as promised, we now have a new poll with only the highest polling candidates plus True North since TN was left off Round One due to the limit of eight options per poll.

Round One is now over. The Round One poll remains posted for reference but will not be consulted further.

Voting is now in the Round Two Poll, below.

We will distribute the funds once they hit $1500 in three $500 chunks unless someone has a better idea.

Please consider whether $500 is going to make a big difference to the recipient or just be a drop in the bucket. I'm thinking the one-person operations are likley to provide the biggest bang for the buck.

If this round not decisive, we'll do another round, dropping off the lowest candidates.

Previous post is here and it links back to an earlier one.

Here's a response in a letter from Patty Johnstone in Ontario ..
I think she is a little ticked off! She also tells it like it is!
"Hey Jeff, let's get a few things straight!!
1. As a career politician, you have been on the public dole (tit) for FIFTY YEARS.
2. I have been paying CPP & OAS for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63). Being a Canadian citizen for over 20 years & paying my taxes, I am eligible at 65 to apply for Old Age Security - OAS (paid for through my taxes).
3. My Canada Pension payments, and those of millions of other Canadians, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for decades until you political pukes decided to raid...
