Layton will learn how useless he’ll be in Harperland. He’ll be outvoted everytime because of a majority. Layton now spouting about retirement security and public health care in Canada. Ha! He’ll get squat!! Layton, gonna make change happen? Oh yeah, change will happen, but it’ll be a neo-con utopia in Stevie’s vision. Dizzy Miss Lizzy demanding proportional representation?? Squat!!
Layton congratulated Harper. Aw, what a good brown noser!
In Gilles Duceppe’s resignation speech, he was right about one thing. Quebec gave the last chance to a federalist party. They will fail miserably because, well, Harper’s will.
Quebecers, let’s hold our noses and elect Pauline Marois in next Quebec election and get sovereignty!! It will be our only escape.
Separation? I am not ready to go there… yet. What I do see is a further devolution of powers and responsibilities to the province. The stuff Harper won’t continue to have Canada do, can be taken up at the provincial level. Anyway, we`ll see.

Iggy ran a better campaign than expected – he was surprising when he was unencumbered by his handlers.
I’m surprised by the jubilance of the NDP has Harpercons are a majority. The politics of the NDP and their fan base baffles me. Of late, they remind me of the Cons with their blind ideological following. And, as with stupid followers, I’m quite sure that they will not take responsibility for their actions. For the next few years, all blame will be on those parties.
As for Quebec, I suspect a kind of blowback against federalism once Harper has established that the NDP in Quebec are effectively neutered. Canada is no longer progressive but a nation of idiot.

Layton has become just like Harper. Andrew Carter on Cjad reported this morning that Layton has muzzled his new flock–not allowed to speak to media until Monsieur has spoken.
Thaks, CWTF, that’s exactly why sovereignty will probably happen this time. One thing Jim Travers predicted before he died was that if the Harpercons were pretty much shut out of the next election in Quebec, some winning conditions for sovereignty would exist. The orange team may have crushed the Bloc, but all the Quebec Harpercon seats, but 3 have been lost. As you’ve pointed out, the NDP will be neutered in every sense of the word. The winning conditions will exist.
So what that the Bloc have been crushed? They had no power to begin with to call a referendum. Only a provincial gov’t can do that and so long as the Charest Liberals were (are) still running things, the Bloc could’ve covered the entire province’s 75 seats and still no sovereignty referendum or winning conditions. Gilles Duceppe was correct in his speach last night about the NDP win here being federalist parties’ last chance in Quebec. It will be a spectacular failure

Click the link above. The article notes that one of the McGill students who won, Laurin Liu, posted on facebook that she’d been told by the party not to speak to the media the weekend before the election.
Another candidate, Charmaine Borg, avoided a newspaper’s request from Le Trait d’Union during the whole campaign…. Funny thing is that when Borg was working on Mulclair’s re-election, it was far easier to get in touch with her.

According to the McGill Tribune, one of the McGill MPs posted on her facebook that she’d been instructed by the party not to speak to the media the weekend before the vote.
Borg, another McGill NDP MP, was also hard to reach — Le Trait d’Union tried to contact her and failed. But if you check out the McGill Tribune, there’s a small article about Borg working on Mulclair’s re-election campaign, but this was back before the Orange Wave came through.

keeping taxes low, Jim?? For whom?? Big oil? Deregulated banks
Your taxes will be going up! UP! UP! All of ours will. Somebody’s gotta pay for those corporations who won’t be paying any taxes, those problematic F35s with no engines, Super prisons and pay increases for his staff.

Good grief!! Is Jim the caliber of the Harper followers?
I’m with you ck. Harper gives the giant company’s billions of our tax dollars. The motion was passed in the Federal House, to do so. Our tax dollars, belong to the citizens. The money is meant for the services we pay through the nose for. But Harper thieves our tax dollars, and gives the money to the wealthiest corporations in the world.
With Harper cutting $11 billion from the budget, the money has to come from somewhere. You can be sure, the Canadian citizens will be the source.
The two wars have cost $36 billion so far. However, the wars will cost billions more, Harper extended Canadian troops time in Afghanistan. I believe the jets “with” the engines, will be over $40 billion. Harper’s prisons will be untold billions more. The tax payers didn’t need the billion dollar fake lake either.
Harper will never admit the costs for anything. He is in contempt of the House, that won’t matter either. He will just prorogue Parliament again, to avoid any questions he doesn’t want to answer.
