So it seems we're in election month. A few things to keep in mind:

1. Consider each party's overall record, not just their most very recent actions
2. A vote for a candidate is also a vote for their party, and the balance of power between the parties in the legislature will have more effect on the province over the next five years than the presence or absence of any particular candidate
3. In some cases voting strategically is the best option, but a vote is not necessarily wasted just because a candidate doesn't win. Conversely, there is no prize for having voted for the winning candidate.
