The NDP just take those issues reallllly far. It comes down to economics. I'm frightened by the cost of the NDP's promises.
Just to be clear, I wasn't trying to take a potshot or anything. I think that (amongst the three main federalist parties), the NDP tend to focus their energies on Education, Health Care and Environment. That could lead to an interesting shift in topics within the Commons.

And it absolutely comes down to economics. I wouldn't give the Dippers a majority government if my life depended on it. As I mentioned earlier today, I really liked their revamped platform......but I don't really believe the numbers.
