A united left wing party would be terrible for all you true blue voters in the West. It would be just like it was in the good old days of Jean Chretien, who never had to worry about not getting a majority of seats in the House because the two right wing parties were too busy fighting each other to mount a serious attack on him.

Stop typing. Considering you're not the only leftie I've met who talks simplified redundant crap like this, it's no wonder there's so much animosity towards the left wing in this province, even from perfectly reasonable folk.
