1. If the Libs were willing to go into coalition with the NDP and Greens at the national level, they’d be able to easily change the direction of Canada (as far as I know, they don’t want to join with the Bloc).

2. Oh, Richard, if you keep an eye on this wikipedia page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/41st_Canadian_federal_election it gives weekly or better polls for the five major parties.

3. That is great news: Fifty-nine percent of the voters appear to be opposed to the Conservative Party!

4. “That is great news: Fifty-nine percent of the voters appear to be opposed to the Conservative Party!”

   I guess you’re being facetious. Under the FPTP system this breakdown is likely to lead to a Conservative victory.

5. Actually, I was being serious. It would be nice if the opposition parties formed an electoral alliance. Is that too much to hope for?

6. P.R. and nonpartisan A.V.

   ALL current *parliamentary regimes* (i.e. Canada and the U.K.) are TYRANT REGIMES — a powermad arrogant EVIL party hack prime minister in control — with party hack robots in the parliament doing his/her bidding.

   At least SOMETHING got learned in the American Revolution — have the EVIL party hacks NOT hold both legislative and executive offices — aka the lesson of SEPARATION OF POWERS to reduce the tyrant stuff.

   EVIL rotten enough that executive officers in the U.S.A. still have any party hack monarchy vetoes — carried over from the DARK AGE of divine right of kings.

   Canada can go over the edge with any gerrymander plurality election (the MORON phrase – *first past the post* from English horseracing) — i.e. west – east Civil WAR and/or English – French Civil WAR or both.

   The U.S.A. regime will of course intervene and likely wipe out Canada — and add some more States in the frozen north.
