Coalitions in a Parliamentary system are legitimate and in governments around the
world they happen all the time and work for short periods of time. The Conservatives
would have formed a coalition with the Devil himself to get rid of Paul Martin, and to
suggest otherwise is tilting against historical fact. Yes the opposition did for a loose
coalition but the leader of it Dion was to weak to hold it together and save himself
at the same time.
I personally see nothing wrong with a coalition even with the Bloc, as long as that party
is still part of Canada. We have to get over the fixation with Quebec. Yes they are in
fact trying to get all the can for Quebec, but then shouldn't the other MP's be trying to
get the most for their home province as well? The Bloc is more blatant than the others
but that's the way it is.
I am hoping that it won't be required to have the opposition form government as a
coalition, but to rid ourselves of the Social Conservatives under Harper I would hold my
nose and support it. Fiscal Conservative Parties are part of the mainstream of politics.
Social Conservatives, Greens in all forms, Environmental cases like Dion, and the very
left of the NDP are not mainstream
The rest, the Conservatives, Liberals and New Democrats of the center are mainstream
and reflect the views of Canadians as a whole to smaller and larger degrees and should
be there to represent their constituents. Yes that would include the social conservatives
and the greens but not as the backbone of government.
As someone who is left on social issues for the most part and conservative on spending
and financial issues, I see very little to vote for. Even the current conservatives have
been spending like drunken sailors and have put us over fifty billion in deficit this past year.
Perhaps the Canadian People should insist on a coalition of the whole, all parties included
in a government of reconciliation, and force them to be nice to each other for four long
years. (yes I jest) It wouldn't be the same.
I can't wait for the name calling, I hope they make it funny, I like my entertainment light and
funny.

That's a good start. No I'm not on medication.
Maybe I am. Given that I just gave you a history lesson, what would that make you?
Again (at the risk of sounding loke a broken record) if there is something you don't understand, you could just ask. That would be the polite thing to do. Do you want to be polite?
Since we didn't have a government form out of that concept, there was no coalition. There was a plan to have a coalition, but it did not come to fruition. So those that claim there was a coalition don't understand politics.
Wow man! You are one sad little troll. Run along now. :roll:LOL
Hint: Even in quotes you can't see the contradiction in your posts.
But my guess is you're purposely ignoring the obvious for fear of having no rebuttal.
Too bad we didn't have the chicken cannon handy.:lol:
I shant be running anywhere.
Haven't bother to read them. I figure if there was a contradiction, you would just point it out.
Or perhaps you are seeing something that isn't. It is conceivable that my meaning and your perceived meaning are not the same thing.
That would be a refreshing change...
I guess those 4 other threads you ran away from, don't exist eh.
With Cannuck, it's perpetual. You could squirt him dead in the eye, and he'd still say you missed.
That's why him and SJP couldn't get along, they were so much alike. Right down to the complete lack of fact, produced to support their claims, making wild unsubstantiated claims about those that make him look stupid, the ever roaming goal posts, and my fave, the snide little shots, that he can deny were shots. You know what I'm talking about, "the cowards way out" shots, with plausible deniablity.
Then ignore the obvious or deny he said something. Yep I know and that's about where I stop wasting my breath.
Not me, I like playing with him, he makes showing him he's wrong, easy. I like it when I get to use his own words to do it to. Ya I know he denies it and ignores it, like Joey did, but it's still so much fun and very entertaining when there aren't any serious discussion going on.
I'm sure you wish it wouldn't be the issue, but it definitely is. It's an issue because Harper is giving validation for why he should not be trusted; it's the same reason he's giving as justification for Canadians to give him a majority mandate.
He's ensuring that won't happen. I can almost hear the sounds of Conservative politicians sharpening knives as we speak.
LOL...not given the chance to confirm or deny as you have chosen to keep it a secret.
