Party Rockers

After a great discussion in journalism today about the upcoming Manitoba provincial election and the personality profile featuring Greg Selinger in the Globe and Mail, it really got me thinking. We as voters all seemed to agree that featuring personality profiles of all the candidates would be informative and interesting.

Sooo I thought why not make a drink for each leader! This month no matter what party we stand or have stood behind, we will look at each party platform and leader and make our our informed voting decisions. After all of that hard work we can all sit down together with our celebratory drinks.
