Election sign issues pale in comparison

Editor: Tanya Tait鈥檚 letter (The Times,  April 22) regarding vandalism to election signs, her lament at this flouting of democracy, and her thanks to Mark Warawa鈥檚 team of supporters for 鈥渨orking in the rain, hail, and cold to repair and replace damaged signs to the best of their ability鈥 rings slightly hollow.

These awful acts of savaging signage come with more recent campaigns, a sign of our times. Compare 91原创 signage savagery with Conservative conduct in Ottawa and which is worse?

Consider two Conservatives charged with breaking the law on campaign finance limits, the Bev Oda 鈥渘ot鈥 affair, hiding of information about the cost of government programs and the government found in contempt of Parliament after a minister lied to a House of Commons committee (a reported first for any western democratic nation).  There鈥檚 more.

I wouldn鈥檛 brave our inclement weather to re-elect any party with this record, not on a sunny day.

Larri Woodrow,
