But you have to admit that Ignatieff has trapped himself. If he votes for the bill, he's a giant soft jelly like substance with no convinction.
If he votes against a bill that will save Canadian taxpayers money and has no contraversial additions, he's power hungry and putting his own interests in front of that of regular Canadians.
He should have kept his mouth shut and waited for something that the Liberal's really couldn't live with.
As it stands he was hoping for the NDP and Bloc to declare that they were voting against the bill so that he could deflect some of the rage that Ordinary Canadians would feel about not only going to the polls, but a very good bill getting squashed.
He allowed himself to get cornered and the Bloc and the NDP gleefully slid the knife between his ribs.
