Here is Joe Cressys background. My experience is that young people care deeply about issues. Its not so much whether is it left or is it right, its not so much as whats the ideology behind it, its the issues that matter. And those issues that young people care about, I think unfortunately are being ignored by the federal government and in fact by consecutive Liberal and Conservative governments.
