"The point of your psot being that teh other parties are working together? because i don't think tehy have a mandate to do so until they face teh voters. And because I think they're doing this out of self interest rather than genuinely trying to help the economy. If their justification is really the lack of a stimulus package, let's see theirs. The budget is is less than 2 months away. Why don't they actually wait to see what's in it? If it really sucks, vote it down, force an election like trudeau did to Clark in 79.
I voted Green. I was disappointed in the results. But I accept them. I like and respect elizabeth May more than all of the other party leaders combined. I think she'd make a GREAT environment minister. But I accept that she didn't win a seat and has no mandate to be in cabinet. I didn't like when harper appointed Fortier, and I'm gonna be consisten even though we're now talking about someone I LIKE being put in cabinet in an undemocratic manner. "

See, I don't think it's about whether Harper is good or bad. There have been lots of politicians throughout history who I've opposed strongly. I recognize, however, that harper won. I recognize too that in a minority, the government can fall on a confidence motion. If that's teh case, I prefer to see an election than to have Dion become PM after being overwhelmingly rejected. If the Libs and NDP are so confident that tehy have the support of Canadians and that Canadians WANT a Lib-NDP coalition supported by the BQ, why don't they ask the GG to call an election? They will enver do that cause they know they will lose. That seems to suggest that they KNOW this would not be met with the support of Canadians.

You are consistent in your pretensions as well, Star Spangled Canadian.
You've created quite an imaginary creature, one that should be able to respond to questions like these with some hint of compassion. But your sensibilities are dead in the water.
You adroitly avoid challenges that would expose you.
You are a very sophisticated troll of the conservative variety, a liar and a mountebank(an itinerant quack appealing to an audience). Expect to be reminded of those, your conservative virtues, as this political story unfolds.
