I think it is time for a change and I am voting for Manjit Grewal and the NDP party. I am wondering if Sepia Mutiny readers know about Ruby's recent scandal with her domestic workers? The Toronto Star exposed Ruby for the poor treatment of the domestics that worked for her family.</p> I am not voting for Ruby Dhalla because she has proven to be an incompetent MP.

Living in Brampton, we have many South Asian politicians. I am not a Ruby fan, she is always like: "Mr Ignatieff this, Liberal party that...", it seems as if she does not have her own opinion or identity. I am still miffed with the Conservative party using Akshay Kumar, when he premiered his Bollywood movie here in Brampton (yes, Bollywood movies have premieres in this suburb of Toronto!). I guess that leaves Manjit Grewal, whose party I support, but he has hardly canvassed!</p> <p>The major politicians have come to Brampton many times during the election, and I find their pandering to the South Asian community funny.</p> <p>I guess all this seems odd to you Americans peeps, I can understand. But there are many South Asian politicians (and other ethnicities) in the various levels of Canadian government. I just wish they would win us over with the speeches, views and class, rather than their associations with Bollywood stars!</p> <p>PS: Ruby was involved in a nanny immigration issue!</p> Hey, I commented about this earlier in a Sepia Mutiny post about targeting ethnic voters!
