Which Canadian Election Candidate Matches You?

Joi Ito, in his IRC channel, #joiito, pointed to this CBC test that attempts to determine which Canadian federal election candidate aligns most closely with you.

It presents the four major political parties’ positions on twelve

issues, but the identities removed. In the quiz, you select “agree” or

“disagree” on each point, and at the end, each candidate is listed,

along with the points on which you agree and disgree with him.

How’d it work out for me? Pure centrist: the candidates with whom I agreed most were the Conservatives’ Stephen Harper (12 issues) and the NDP’s Jack Layton (12 issues).
