Tilter Posted April 24, 2011 Report Posted April 24, 2011 With the only option to win anything in the election, Iggy would be looking to hook up with Jack & form a new socialist leftwing party. One problem could be that Jack hearing that Iggy got a hearty round of-- not applause but raspberries at a hockey game in Mississauga when he rode in on McAlllion's arm. McAlllion was roundly applauded. Hearing that Jack could back out of the union- <_< & let Iggy ride off in the sunset of Iggynomonius defeat Quote
Mr.Canada Posted April 24, 2011 Report Posted April 24, 2011 Ignatieff is poison. Layton isn't stupid enough to have anything to do with him at this point. It would kill his support across the country especially in Qc where the Liberals are largely hated.

YEGmann Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 Ignatieff is poison. Layton isn't stupid enough to have anything to do with him at this point. It would kill his support across the country especially in Qc where the Liberals are largely hated. Only at this point. IMO, Layton is a 100% politician. His goals in election are (descending by importance): 1. Forming government. 2. Being Official opposition. 3. Increasing number of seats. Number 2 is his dream. He knows well it will never happen. Forming coalition moves him into number 1. It would be a historical achievement for the NDP. He won't hesitate a moment to demand some minister's positions from Ignatieff after the non-confidence vote in the HoC. Actually this has been already decided. The election outcome will define only bargaining power among the three amigos. Quote
