You really think the NDP are snuggling up to the Libs because they have the same ideologic similarities, and want to share part of the blame for the Ad Scandal, and Gun Registry debacle among others? As soon as the NDP gets thier budget in there, Layton is both useless to the Liberals, and has said on the weekend he would want an election right away.
Homestly, I don't care. If the Liberals were making desperate power struggle alliances with a separatist party, then I would be concerned about that too. The NDP is not a separatist party and therefore I am not worried about a backdoor deal with the NDP as much - or at all.

I completely understand that politics are all about making these kinds of strange pacts, but they are also about shady deals and backdoor promises. So I don't think it is unreasonable to think that they NCP is making a few of those with the Bloc, and I don't think it is unreasonable to think that some of those have to do with Quebec separatism since that is what the Bloc's existance is all about. Since the Bloc is helping Harper, I think it is likely that sepatatism is the chip being played.
