I hate the media sometimes. I really do.

We're coming up to an election in Ottawa, and you'd think we only had 3 candidates.

And if by 3, you meant 7, then you'd be right. But you wouldn't know that because newspapers have no obligation to present an accurate representation of the facts.

Just because I like people to make informed decisions, here are your mayoral candidates in alphabetical order.

Piotr ANWEILER - http://www.anweiler.ca/
Bob CHIARELLI - http://bobchiarelli.com/
Robert LARTER - erm, he moved and left no forwarding address and no website...
Alex MUNTER - http://www.alexmunter.ca/
Larry O'BRIEN - http://larryformayor.ca
Barkley POLLOCK - http://www.myspace.com/barkleypollockformayor
Jane SCHARF - http://www.takebackcityhall.info/

Any mayoral candidate who can't come up with something better than fucking MYSPACE to host his website doesn't deserve a vote.

Barkley Pollock, you get a WAG of the FINGER.

Agreed. Also, anyone who isn't fairly easy to find if you know their full name and riding – gone!

That reduces the list by two in total.

Seconded, and I'd also have a similar thing go for Jane Scharf - that website name makes her sound like a whinerbaby, and definitely NOT someone I'd like in City Hall.

Well, she has a history of homeless activism and is sort of a one-trick pony.

I'm not saying the other candidates are good candidates, just that they are running.

I have seen the media mention them all, but not frequently.
