Marc Garneau is the best qualified to be PM, though he likely could never win an election.

I don't mind a carbon tax, though income taxes would need to be substantially reduced.

You didn't answer my question. What has Harper done to make that occur?

What exactly has he done to save the economy?

Still don't like him.

You're an idiot.

I like Mulroney.

A much more accurate statement.

So cutting the GST was a good thing in your opinion?

What's your issue with it?

My issues with the report, or page that someone typed up, is that it gave little detail and made no sense. I'll admit the NDP have provided good governance in some provinces, and my previous comments on this subject are just partisan. My issues with the report is that you can't compare how the NDP in Manitoba did in 2003 with how the PCs did in Newfoundland and Labrador in 1986. As well just because parties have the same names doesn't mean they all govern alike. If someone came out with a report saying the NDP have done a better job balancing the budget because they implemented these 6 policies compared to the Liberals because they implement these policies then it would make some sense. Even though the NDP have affiliated parties in 9 provinces they all run on different policies. Lorraine Michael has campaigned on free post secondary education, full day kindergarten and universal child care. None of the provinces where the NDP have governed has any of these things to my knowledge. The PC Party in this province have been more left wing then some NDP governments. I've seen it written that Roy Romanow's NDP government was like a PC government, Darrel Dexter is criticized for his "austerity budgets". People say Gary Doer was a big L Liberal and I saw an article a few weeks ago from a New Democrat that the Manitoba NDP campaigned to the right of the PC Party last year.

There have been soooo many NDP governments too.

Seeing this is a thread about a dead man can you clarify your comment?

You'd save the country though!

I'm actually thinking it'd be great to see the NDP win in Ontario. The last time they governed the province hatred for them destroyed the federal party, and once they were defeated they were replaced with a strong conservative government that reformed Ontario.

What's the name of it?

No thanks! Also didn't know he wrote one.

What?

The NDP were talking about the environmental impacts of the Northern Gateway, there's gong to be environmental impacts of a west east pipeline.

So they don't care about the environmental impact of the pipeline?

I thought Dippers were concerned about the environmental impacts of the Northern Gateway Pipeline.

A poll released the other day, and previous polls, contradicts that thought.

Trudeau has rarely spoke on policy, how do you know he is very left wing?

What attack ads. Are the NDP planning on attacking him for being born the son of a Prime Minister?
