AHA! This might be why you end up getting flamed. You are telling me how
to vote. This is not addressing the issues, this is imposing your
political views onto me. Let's agree to discuss the issues and talk
about things from the "I" or "me" perspective. In other words, "I like
the following things about policy XYZ." Or "I do not like..." Let us
agree not to ask others to vote with our personal views, but rather
discuss the issues that each of the parties has presented.

I would be interested in seeing what the NDP has to say about FOSS.
Scott, seeing as you have done the research on this issue, could you
please provide the links to the NDP policy on FOSS? Thanks!!

regards,
