So I would love to give an update on the rich and heated debates that took place yesterday between all the AMS election candidates. I’d love to let you know how the gloves really came off, how the nails came out, how the clothes were shed, and mud was generously distributed- but- I can’t. I can’t because yesterday at the final debate of this illustrious elections campaign time- nobody showed up. Not even the press showed up. Not even Michael Duncan’s mom showed up. I mean there was only ONE pigeon in attendance and I saw it duck out early.
      To be fair no one really missed anything. I sat through the first hour and a half of the proceedings and then left to stuff envelopes for 2 hours. I AM NOT JOKING- STUFFING ENVELOPES WAS PREFERABLE. One has to wonder, when those in-the-know on UBC politics are totally disenfranchised and bored with a campaign that is twice as short as those in the past- <i>what is going on?</i> When the AMS is doing little to nothing to extend information to the residences, to commuters, to ANYONE <i>what is going on?</i>When I consider a tropical fish more newsworthy than any of the candidates <i> what is going on / do I have a creepy pseudo-sexual thing for fish?</i>
    These are the issues of the day dear reader- I wish I could tell you any different.
