Um.....I hate to be the person to tell you, on the last paragraph...so I mean the last four years..the Liberals and NDP...yeah. And that didn't go so hot.

NDP is an absolute train wreck, and has been for quite some time save for some really tiny glimmers of hope here and there. As much as I dislike the current landscape, and as much as I don't feel represented, I'm quite sure the NDP wasn't the answer either.

    Train wreck?

    They were the 3rd party in a minority Liberal government with the Cons as official opposition. And they STILL managed to pass a few of their bills that improved the quality of life of middle class Canadians. That's a win in my book. Unfortunately the Libs took credit for what they did.

    But people also forget the dynamic of a minority gouvernent and how they have to make compromises between each other. And so the NDP got shit on for essentially working with the Libs. But how else would they have gotten anything passed? They made made compromises on both sides, but somehow the NDP got the blame.
