Yes, the NDP will be better at governing than the Liberals - I have no doubt. The question I was trying to ask - but did not make clear - is "will the NDP be able to undo the legacy of Conservative rule?". Will they even try? Can they bring back the Wheat Board after it's killed?
ETA: I wonder if the NDP could try to enshrine some things into the Charter or Constitution - such as the Wheat Board, etc... that could not be killed by another Conservative government down the road.
