I don't get it. I also don't get the poor grammar. Must have been written by a Quebecer. But I agree with the statement.

Ah, I see, but Iggy's attempt at a coalition was a true desire to make Canada a better place? You can't tell me it wasn't just as self-serving.

I'm thinking I should refrain from posting in the political threads until after the election because the partisan hypocrisy is already threatening to make me head explode.


What's worse than having the CPC in power? Having the LPC in power.

But let's not forget the dipper and bloc whores, who will make a deal with
ANYONE to try to get power.

Oh, I haven't forgot them. I'm just more focused on the expensive high-class whores(CPC, LPC) and not so much on the street corner whores that give $20 BJs(NDP, Bloc)

Seems to me you're the one being partisan. Harper is demonizing Iggy for the exact same thing he was trying to do. Both of them were doing it to get power, but Harper's the one cloaking himself in righteousness about it.

In case you haven't noticed, I'm not exactly thrilled with the state of our current candidates, and haven't been for some time. Why the hell do you think I spoil my ballots by voting for Don Cherry?
They both got caught with their hands in the cookie jar and lied about it. Then each attacked the other over trying to form a coalition. Both scumbag's actions are reprehensible and quite frankly, insulting to anyone of at least average intelligence with a memory span longer than 5 minutes!

I personally don't have a problem with a coalition - that's how parliament is supposed to work. The mother parliament is doing it right now, and it seems to be working for them. The fly in the ointment for us are the Bloc.

This is how I felt about the coalition all along. I don't care if there is a coalition government, just that it gave de facto power to a separatist party whose sole aim (even if they campaign on a federalist platform, that is to say, to try and get as much money for Quebec as possible) is to break apart the country. I didn't support the coalition with the LPC/NDP/Bloq and I wouldn't have supported the coalition with the CPC/NDP/Bloq (had I been old enough to vote at the time).

As for this election, it's nothing but a farce. Harper will barely get a majority and there will be leadership reviews for all other parties, which will hopefully give us better options to chose from in the next election.

It did nothing like that. The Bloc agreed to support a Lib/NDP coalition for 6 months when an election would be held.

Liberals, NDP, Bloc sign deal on proposed coalition

$1:

The Liberals and New Democrats signed an agreement on Monday to form an unprecedented coalition government, with a written pledge of support from the Bloc Québécois
...
The six-point accord includes a description of the role of the Liberal and NDP caucuses, which would meet separately and sit next to each other on the government benches in the House of Commons

When two federalist parties can convince the separatists to support them instead of the separatist agenda, Canada is better off.

Ya, because we all know that that support doesn't come with any strings attached

[stokes]

I almost felt bad for Paul Martin because he wore the shit Jean Chretien caused, same with Kim Campbell taking over after Mulroney. At the least the other parties had the good sense to put him out of his misery when they had the chance. On the other hand there is nothing wrong with using the entire might of the opposition to bring down a government when there are real issues at stake.

Unfortunately for Iggy there are no real issues here just a lot of blustering, I will cry from happiness when we send him home to America.

[OnTheIce]

Here's a gut check everyone, Canadians don't give a shit what Harper may have said or written 7 years ago.

Canadians barely understand what Harper is saying now about Iggy an the coalition....they care a tiny but more about this now because this time, it's a reality.

All of us who follow politics know what's happened but the majority of the Canadian electorate don't care or understand enough about politics to care.

If I look at the election coverage on the national level I can say That Duceppe is derailing The con narative for two day's in a row. Iggy should send him a check.

$1:

Duceppe, arrete donc de te lamenter s'tie.

T'es aussi crosseur que les autres. Une chance que tes amis journalistes du plateau sont la pour t'appuyer.

Poor pimpy Duceppe has a sing, dated document that prove what he is saying. You know is hard to argue against that without looking like a complete partisan hack!

A check? Or do you mean a cheque?
