Re: public medicare (though not necessarily referencing faith)... Preston Manning and Mike Harris (via the Fraser Institute) released a report (http://www.fraserinstitute.ca/shared/readmore.asp?sNav=nr&id=653) saying the gov't should get out of healthcare (http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentServer?pagename=thestar/Layout/Article_Type1&c=Article&cid=1113388364461&call_pageid=968332188492&col=968705899037&DPL=IvsNDS%2f7ChAX&tacodalogin=yes). I think there's cause for concern with regard to the current federal and provincial parties simply because the elected members and the people who consistently elect them are by and large the same ones who produced Manning and Harris.
And let's not even talk about a certain former conservative PM (http://andrewcoyne.com/2005/04/talking-of-envelopes-full-of-cash.php). (Links courtesy of rentagurkha's other blog (http://www.la-mancha.net/cgi-bin/mt-tb.cgi/797).)
I respect the difficulty in choosing someone trustworthy to vote for (let alone choosing someone based on their party) -- but (no pun intended) there isn't enough money in the world to make me vote conservative. :(
