And btw all you have to offer as proof that this coalition won't cripple Cdn economy is 'get a grip'? Happy to have the economics discussion anytime you want. In the short term, the Canadian dollar will tank, international business will stop investing, and do something between hold on their investments to see what happens to simply pulling out of what will look like a banana republic, and when the NDP start throwing money around interest rates could fire up sharply.

The NDP have been campaigning on a balanced budget platform since the mid-80s. Your claims just sound like what the Republicans said about Obama. "Taxes will go up... businesses will leave... everyone will be unemployed" Nothing is further from the truth. In both cases.
