I’m all read out of blogs and columns over coalition governments. However, I picked up this interesting take by Chantal Hebert, where she not only hints at a Bob Rae/Iggy division. We hear Iggy and his friends categorically telling Canadians a coalition with anyone is out of the question. We hear of rumours . . . → Read More: More Coalition Talk: Could This Simply Be a Way to Get Jack Layton to Sign Iggy’s Walking Papers?

 | Trackback for this entryIt appears that this will be the topic of conversation this summer along with the freedom flotilla. Personally, I still think the left of center parties should merge outright, but sadly, as time goes further along and the NDP keeps sniping at the Liberals, I don’t see that happening anytime soon.

| Trackback for this entryWell, well, the NDP are getting closer to Harpercon mentality, aren’t they? As retired History professor and broadcaster and sometimes contributor here at SSM, Graeme Decarie pointed out, the NDP no longer stand for much, do they? But I disagree, they are no longer gentle even. In addition to doing everything possible to . . . → Read More: Careful What You Wish For…You Might Just Get It Tags: coalition governments, Harpercons, Jack Layton, Stephen Harper, The Liberals, The NDP | Category: Culture wars, Dirty Political Strategies, Opposition Politics, Stupidity |

| Trackback for this entryQuestions I keep asking myself as of late. I have heard many talk of Iggy resembling Brother Steve, only a lighter version. However, what about the NDP, here? Everytime we see or hear Thomas Mulcair talk, he can’t seem to resist slamming the Liberals at every turn. I think he slams them as . . . → Read More: What Are the N.D.P. up to These Days?

| Trackback for this entryRicky P is on CJAD live discussing the budget just handed down. CJAD morning show’s Andrew Carter will be talking to Jimbo Flaherty, hisself! Like the the Throne speech last night, this budget has no surprises. Not even a poison pill…this time around.

| Trackback for this entryOh hell, here we go again. In my earlier post, I had mentioned that Duceppe was elsewhere giving speeches and Iggy said he wasn’t invited to a pre budget release meeting and that only Jack Layton would be in attendance. Remember, he was the one who did not vote with the January 2009 . . . → Read More: Here We Go Again!

| Trackback for this entryI read Thwap’s (Thwap’s Schoolyard) post today regarding his distaste for Iggy and the Liberals. He leaves the impression that the Stevie and Iggy aren’t that much different as he refers to Iggy as ‘Harper-lite’, particularly if he becomes prime-minister as well as predicting that a minority would be the best they can . . . → Read More: Not Only C.R.U.S.H.

| Trackback for this entryI have always thought that an outright merger between the Liberals and The N.D.P. with perhaps the Greens (although, if one looks carefully, they’re not really left of center) would be what’s best. I certainly understand Dylan’s concerns (Right of Center Ice) about a coalition government being a bad idea based largely in . . . → Read More: The Game Has Changed…Canada is Ready For a Coalition Tags: Frank Graves, Harpercons, Jack Layton, Michael Ignatieff, Polls, Stephen Harper, The Bloc Quebecois, The coalition gov't, The Liberals, The N.D.P. | Category: Dirty Political Strategies, Opposition Politics |

For openers, the Facebook group, Canadians against the Proroguing of Parliament , is now nearing 50, 000 members and growing. There are other such Facebook groups, whose memberships are also growing.
