top five reasons not to vote NDP

Being from BC, I have decided to list my top five reasons why I would never vote NDP. Also, this is in honor of all the top fives I've seen on sportsnet.ca lately

5. The NDP's inability to add and/or subtract; see fudget budget among other things.

4. Their misuse of public funds to buy lemon ferries; fast cat fiasco.

3. Their instability at leader; I want a party who has strong leadership skills, and right now Carole James is simply not doing the job even as an opposition; which should be easier than making the actual decisions in a lot of cases as she doesn't have to defend the moves, she only has to dispute those decisions, preferably with numbers and facts to back them up that are true.

2. because of the mess they made with our healthcare system and not supporting children with special needs.

and the #1 reason I will never vote NDP is their ties with unions. I really hate being put in the middle by the union worker who insists on not negotiating a deal and using the oublic as pawns instead by walking off the job for a few days or weeks in extreme cases. It's really essential to keep certain things open (hospitals, Hydro because of the potential for injury with downed lines, police stations, fire stations). Other things are not necessarily as essential, but for certain groups it may be essential (schools are not so essential for the typical student, but for someone struggling in school or having some sort of disability, such as autism, changes in routine can throw them off or they may need as much time in the class room as possible save for the occasional snow fall closure and the usual breaks scheduled throughout the school year).
