Congratulations even if you are one of Jacky's lackeys. Can you take one of those Nerf guns with you and shoot your fellow MPs, regardless of party affiliation, when they make dumbass comments?

PS martin and I are pissed we weren't allowed to vote this year.

Even if I was a lackey it would still be better then being a drone

Why weren't you both allowed to vote?

Congrats Dan. Keep those cons in line if you can!

Having been a former resident of Scarborough Southwest for 22 years, my parents have been in the riding since 1977, it's nice to have some new vision in the riding. Enjoy your time on the hill, and serve those people well!

I will of course do my best. My family has called the area home for 80 years and I have four generations of family still in the riding.

So there's a vested interest in doing a good job too!

Which area were you in "On the ice"?

We've been working outside of the country for over five years.

I knew I recognized the name when I saw it, took me a few minutes to remember that it was good ol bb. No wonder you disappeared from Ikariam last year! Unfortunately CKA fell apart there, we were leaderless (kind of like the Liberals!) and everyone peeled out. Some of us still kick around on the server, but who knows for how long.

Anyways congrats on making it, I know you'd been trying hard for many years at different levels. I may not be quite so far left of centre ideologically as the Orange wave (and frankly I'd be a little more scared of an NDP government at this stage than I am of the Conservative majority though that much blue is frightening) but a few years as the official opposition will be good seasoning and hopefully prepare the left--united or not--to reclaim control of the House.

ahhh, Ikariam. Yeah lots of things happened there. Mostly though it was a combination of me having to take a break because I was a) working a job as Deputy Returning Officer for the UofT Student elections AND b) moving to Alberta for a Job while some in game clan members got us embroiled in a war most of the members weren't ready or willing to be in. So by the time I was available it had all gone to poop.

Glad to hear some folks are still playing. I know some folks went to play with other in game groups.

As for me, well there's a bunch of nails in the 'gaming coffin', but I'm not giving up the ghost entirely. Still gonna find some time for gaming, just not much.

The job is a little time consuming, but its EXACTLY what I want to be doing. Going to be able to help a lot of people in the next 4 years and hopefully even more after that.
