Since the subsidy likely will be gone next election, I bet that the NDP STILL run someone in every single riding, including those toaster ridings in Alberta.

I agree, symbolically Liberals, Conservatives, and the NDP will have to be in every riding if they have ambitions of ever being in government. I would argue that any party with a serious chance of forming government would be able to raise enough funds to run in every riding. But what about the green party?
