Canadian Politics for a change

[ForeverAutumn]

Hey Feanor, Kex and anyone else who cares to comment...

What do you think of this Coalition deal that the Liberals and NDP are talking about?

Outside of the details of what each party may or may not do to this country, the whole thing just seems to go against the spirit of Democracy IMO. If the opposition doesn't like what the current gov't is doing they should officially join together like the Reform and Conservatives did in 2003. Then force a new election through a non-confidence vote and let the Canadian public decide who should lead the country. Fewer Parties means less chance of another minority Gov't at the next election. This fudgery of holding hands to overthrow the current government and then promising to get along for the next three years is foolishness and an insult to our rights and freedoms.
