I'm sorry, you're right. It's bi-partisan and therefore does not favour any one territory unfairly. I even posted the thread about it. ;)

I missed that thread sad to say. Using the Aussie model compared to ours with all the crap would make for an interesting topic i think. Perhaps you should run with it.

Actually I think the NDP will go to the center if Cullen or Mulcair ended up the leader.
The NDP is struggling with leaving the image of a protest party and becoming a real
political party. The only way they can do that is reject Brian Topp and the old guard
and go to a new image and in the end with less than an hour to go that is where it will
go.
The center and some elements of the left made the same kind of statements about the
election of Harper and the extreme right. This is about reality and what we personally
think from a bias position is often not the case. If I were voting for the New Democrats
I would be much more comfortable with Mulcair.

Yeah, me too.

Mulcair is better than Topp.....if you are NDP.

And how do you feel that he and the NDP have 50 % plus 1 for Quebec to separate. A complete repudiation of the Clarity Act.

And both are better than Harper if you're a rational human being. :)

Well, if you are a rational human being that desires the total financial and cultural and political destruction of Canada..........

Too many social programs, too much unfettered immigration, and the kissing of separatist butt on referenda is exactly the opposite of what Canada needs.
