Elizabeth May WILL participate in debates!

Well this is funny! I only got a French link for now but it's from the francophone CBC so it must be true...

It seems Harper, Layton and Duceppe backed away from their positions... Stephane Dion was already willing to accept her presence in the debates...

Ummm, prepare to eat crow....

The opposition to May taking part in the debate began to unravel this morning when NDP Leader Jack Layton caved to growing public criticism and said he will not oppose May's participation as long as Prime Minister Stephen Harper showed up.
That put pressure on the Harper camp, which decided the Prime Minister would not boycott the debate if May was allowed to participate.

Ouch, how did someone such as Colpy, part of Canada's intelectual elite, assume the opposite?:roll::lol::roll::lol::roll::lol:

....good to see she has been let in, the debates went from boring to creating a sense of apathy.

I think you got that right Colpy in many ways I think the NDP are now just corporatelite, at least they have not inspired me in about a decade now. There has been a narrowing of politics in Canada in the last ten years, I'm suspicious.
