It says the NDP is a joke. ...despite having such great high profile candidates in Canada such as Svend Robinson. And this is after 17 Federal elections!!!

There will be a smug satisfaction if the Greens can poll ahead of Trudeau's NEP Liberals in a couple Alberta ridings. It's enough to make some Cons vote Green.

Ya know, using the Republican party as a frame of reference, I have to tell you, I think the Cons in Canada are centrists 8O

Agreed. Stephen Harper's policy platform would fit much more easily in a Democrat party platform book than in a Republican one. He'd be seen as a slightly conservative Democrat. If he was Republican, he'd be seen as a John McCain Republican. Yes, a John McCain Republican.

Following American politics fairly closely, I find the close associations that some make between Harper and Bush to be a bit odd.

From an American frame of reference, Harper is merely a slightly conservative Democrat relative to Martin's liberal Democrat.

It's all a matter of persepctive Triple, if you're a communist, everybody to the right of you is can be anything from a conservative to a neo-con to a fascist, and in most cases, the far left lumps them all together. I agree, Harper is a mild Conservative Democrat in the States, comparing him with Bush (actually Bush's neo-con advisors) is almost comical.
