    I’ll hold my nose and vote Liberal if it means no Conservatives.

    Every. Damned. Time.

    The biggest thing the Reds offer is a blocking action against the blue.

    The best thing we had, and we’ll look back on in the future, is when Mr Singh patiently and calmly leveraged a minority red government in support of slowly providing for regular people.

    … and then he stopped doing it patiently or calmly and fell into a big pit of ego and special interest; but before that it was the most leverage he and his party had for improving regular people in a long time. I don’t expect the oranges to be in a similar position for years to come, unfortunately.

      I really wish Jack Layton had lived. Things would be absolutely great under him. The NDP need a strong blue collar union person as their lead.
