Political interference with the BoC, stock markets and things like that is absolutely the wrong way to go IMO.

Doesn't the government often interfere with the BoC? If I remember my Canadian history correctly, Mulroney via Crow forced them to keep interest rates *HIGH*, which ultimately lead to a home-grown recession.
BTW - I know most of the NDP platform and policies and never read anything about abolition of the stock market. So I just googled it to see if I could find anything and I did. Slava's post on CP.
