Speak for yourself. In Canada, you could have a lot of choices. In my Ottawa riding back in 2000, these were my choices on the election ballot:
  • Liberal Mac Harb 22,710
  • New Democrat Heather-Jane Robertson 13,516
  • Canadian Alliance David Brown 10,167
  • Progressive Conservative Beverly Mitchell 7,505
  • Green Chris Bradshaw 1,531
  • Marijuana Brad Powers 813
  • Canadian Action Carla Marie Dancey 210
  • Communist Marvin Glass 139
  • Natural Law Neil Paterson 111
  • Marxist–Leninist Mistahi Corkill 66
