I'll never understand how people fall for this crap. Even at the CBC which is supposed to represent all candidates equally and truthfully. I'm not despondent about this election though; the media and pollsters have been wrong before, and maybe once again the NDP will give them a surprise, as in Quebec in 2011, and Alberta this past summer.
