Don't get me wrong, I'm not in favor of an NDP Government, but I don't see a problem with their message getting airtime as well. The NDP carry a solid message that represents a large group of Canadians.....no harm in that message being heard.

And people love to complain about "Socialism" and "Paying Taxes to pay for everyone else", but NOBODY would move to a country called "Free for all" or "Screw everyone else".
1) The NDP don't have a patent on Education, Medicine and Security.
2) Conservatives and Liberals aren't promoting a free for all.

The NDP just take those issues reallllly far. It comes down to economics. I'm frightened by the cost of the NDP's promises.

Agreed, very focused. But a focused platform can also be be unfeasible.
