How didn't I? You questioned why the opposition parties want to remove the authority of minority government... something about a "gross abbrogration of democracy"
|
because you didnt answer the main basis of the post which was...why is it OK to supplant the elected government based on their "plan" to deal with the current crisis, and replace it with a group of 3 parties who also don't have a "plan" of any kind I have been able to find.

What is happening here is that the Conservatives are refusing to discuss the budget

They are? How do we know that? Seriously, I haven't seen that proven one way or the other.

A coalition between the Liberals and NDP are closer idealogically other than major fiscal policy issues

So close in fact that Dion campaigned AGAINST such a coalition 6 weeks ago. What changed?

The BQ, that's another story. Although it seems they really aren't asking much and they wouldn't actually be apart of the coalition government
|
You cant be serious? They would wield the MOST power among the 3 parties...how are you not seeing this?

Don't worry, it's not going to happen as long as the Conservatives are willing to negotiate. This will be a good lesson for the Conservatives either way. The Liberals know that a coalition would be detrimental to their future status so it's just posturing.

A good lesson? On what? Gaining power at any cost? And if the Liberals are playing chicken, they have made a massive mistake. They will lose ANY election within the next year and by a landslide. Hell their support in the last one was at its lowest since the party formed sans 2 other times. they are in NO position to be dictating anything to anyone about governing Canada right now.
