# Welcome to Harper’s Canada

23 January 2006 · Ray Slakinski

I was reading Halton MP candidates blog and laughed when I saw this [rant](http://www.garth.ca/weblog/2006/01/21/day-51/):

> Suddenly Americans with guns are everywhere; women with coathangers fill the alleys; homosexuals are beaten in the park; and sick, dying people are collected by for-private ambulances to be sold for body parts.
>
> Welcome to Harper’s Canada, Liberal version.

I love how open Garth is here, and on most posts he is the same way -- open and clear. I also spoke with Garth on the phone today, and found him friendly and easy to talk to. We appeared to agree on a lot of the issues and I have no fear in voting for him. So it looks like that is what I'll be doing.

Just an FYI, Garth also posted about the [benefits of blogging](http://www.garth.ca/weblog/2006/01/21/day-52/)!
