Elections used to mean something because you didn't have one every 2 or 3 years. This is just getting stupid.

Is that Ignatieff statement fact or conjecture? Very interesting......and I don't think many people (regardless of political stripe) would mind him leaving sooner rather than later.

What is Ignatieff's political legacy after 5 years? An ill-timed and (arguably) foolish coalition attempt? The opposition leader standing against a moderate sized minority government should be able to show some serious policy influence after five years. Instead, he (and the Lib Party in general) have spent most of their time acting like Hall Monitors.
