Lets just see if you will post this comment,,,

David Amos

@tony forward For the record CBC is well aware that I am the fifth candidate. Hance Colburne of CBC moderated the debate in Hampton on Oct 7th one before CBC posted on their website on Oct 14th his interview with Rob Moore on CBC airwaves

It appears that the CROWN Corp known as CBC has failed its MANDATE once again and acted in a very partisan fashion in ignoring my name on the ballot. Correct? The real question is will the CROWN even allow this comment to be posted?

RURAL GUY

@David Amos was going to hold my nose and vote con until I seen your name right at the top of the ballot. I instantly checked yours without even looking any further. I've never seen such a poor choice for prime minister for our three main parties, ever. when harper polls as good as he is, kinda tells you something about the other two, yuk

@David Amos I'm sorry they ignored you,you have great points but you should really pick a demographic that is smarter.Here people vote for cons without ever using their brains.Sad really when all they represent are Irving ,the potash corp and their minions.They are owned by them and they don't even know it.

CBC writes lots about people who BS a lot then don't bother to put their name on a ballot. Yet I have done so FIVE times and they have never said a peep other than bar me from the airwaves and try to have their pals in the other CROWN Corp known as the RCMP arrest me. Page 14 of this old pdf file of mine is the reason why.

David Amos

Anybody bother to notice I am the only person posting here with a real name and it is the same name that is on the ballot in Fundy Royal?

Do ya think the lawyer Rob Moore "The True Conservative" or any of the others would dare to debate me in writing with their true name within a website funded by the taxpayer and controlled by questionable public servants? How about outside the CROWN"s domain within the Yankee website called Twitter? That is where I play very serious Political Hard Ball. See for yourself or ask Rob Moore's hero Stevey Boy Harper if I am a liar or not.

BTW Rob Moore and I know the truth about Randy Quaid's questionable arrests in Canada and the USA. More importantly so does Randy I know that for a fact.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/randy-quaid-release-jail-vermont-1.3274216

"I never worried about being found guilty or any of that for any of these charges because I know the truth, and I know the facts are going to come out at some point, and today was a good sign of that," Randy Quaid said

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/randy-quaid-court-appearance-1.3262238

"Quaid and his wife Evi, a Canadian citizen, have been living in Montreal since February 2013."

"Robert Gervais, an official with the Immigration and Refugee Board, confirmed in an email to CBC News that a detention review hearing for Quaid is scheduled for Thursday afternoon.

But the reason for the actor's arrest is unclear.

Quaid, 64, was detained Tuesday morning after attending a regular check-in with CBSA officials in downtown Montreal.

Quaid's lawyer, Mark Gruszczynski, declined to shed light on the affair or to reveal the reason for Quaid's arrest."

David Amos I must Say I am rather impressed at CBC's sudden fit of Integrity to allow my posts to stand the test of time for a few hours at least. (: Rest assured that I have been saving digital snapshots just in case they delete and block me as usual :)

In return here is an old scoop about CTV that CBC and everybody else and his dog has been ignoring for 11 very long years after I ran in the election of the 38th Parliament against the aptly named lawyer Rob Moore.

Fundy Royal campaign targets middle class with focus on jobs

Fundy Royal voters have elected Conservatives all but 1 time in 28 elections over 101 years

CBC News Posted: Oct 17, 2015 6:00 AM AT

Four candidats are running in the federal riding of Fundy-Royal.

Candidates running in Fundy Royal are appealing to the middle class in the typically Tory-dominant riding, with a focus on jobs and the economy.

The Conservatives have strong roots in the southern New Brunswick riding — this area has given its support to the Conservatives in every election for the past century, save for 1993, when Liberal Paul Zed won office.

In 2011, Conservative incumbent Rob Moore captured nearly 60 per cent of the vote.

Moore said he hopes the party's record, with its focus on the economy and direct benefits to people, will earn him another term in office.

The Tory incumbent pointed to programs, such as the Universal Childcare Benefit, as well as family income splitting and pension income splitting, that has left more money in the pockets of Canadians.
But, he said, he has also delivered on bringing federal cash to his ridinng.

Moore says the biggest question he's heard at the door is how the next government will move the regions's economy forward.

He says the answer lies in TransCanada Corp.'s proposed Energy East pipeline.

"The [Irving Oil] refinery is employing many people in our region, there's a lot of spinoff benefits, and if we can bring that resource from Alberta to New Brunswick to be refined and sold from our port, that is a great economic opportunity," said Moore.

Liberals focus on seniors, middle class

The Liberals are trying hard to knock off the Tories. Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau has already appeared in Sussex, the largest community in the riding.

Liberal candidate Alaina Lockhart said she is trying to appeal her campaign to the middle class.
"That's the majority of Fundy Royal," said Lockhart, who has owned Lockhart's Weddings and Special Occasions Inc. since 2004.

"People working everyday to make ends meet and the fact that we have a national campaign focused on strengthening the middle class to put more money in their pockets to then stimulate the economy, I'm encouraged by that," she said.

Lockhart says her party's focus on seniors through initiatives like affordable housing, strengthening the Canada Pension Plan and guaranteed income supplement would benefit the region.

"They worked hard their whole lives and we need to make sure they have secure retirements," she said.

Hopeful for change

NDP candidate Jennifer McKenzie says she's sensing an eagerness for change in the large riding.
McKenzie, an electrical engineer living in St. Martins, threw her name in after becoming "discouraged and disillusioned by the current government."

'People want our youth back, we want to have reasons to stay here.' - NDP candidate Jennifer McKenzie

The region has lost a lot of its youth because of the Harper government's lack of focus on the economy, she said.

" be part of the economy and have jobs," she asid.

"The current government's focus on the prairie provinces in the oil and gas industry left New Brunswick and the Atlantic provinces neglected, and we actually had a three year recession here."

McKenzie says the NDP's focus on small business would better serve the area's economy.

"Our agricultural industry should be flourishing, we have to make sure we protect the family farm, there's fishing, forestry, I'm proud of our tourism initiatives, so much is a good fit to the NDP," she said.

Lost youth

The proposed Energy East pipeline is popular in many parts of the southern New Brunswick riding, but the Green candidate said it is the wrong way to attract investment.

Stephanie Coburn, the Green Party candidate for Fundy Royal, says the promise of 14,000 direct and indirect full-time jobs across Canada is "hugely exaggerated."

"The pipeline is a bad idea for people locally and we heard about the pipeline spills in northern Alberta and Michigan, and that ... oil they hope to bring in through the pipeline is impossible to cleanup," Coburn said.

"It's a bad idea nationally because it's all going to be exported … And it's going to contribute so much to the greenhouse gases we're trying to avoid to the globe, and exacerbate global warming terribly."
Coburn says she has heard encouragement for her party at the door, a big turnaround from when she first stepped into the political arena in 2010.

"Now I feel I'm finally not talking into the wind as I have been a long time about environmental issues," said Coburn.

"People are aware of the environmental problems we experience, and we're going to experience if we don't make some changes. That's a positive change from when I first ran."

Fundy Royal contains parts of the counties of Albert, Kings, Queens, Saint John and Westmorland and includes St. Martins, Salisbury, Sussex and Petitcodiac, as well as part of Quispamsis.
