I definitely understand the stupidity of wanting to shutdown the oilsands, but let's not confuse the NDP/Greens with the other parties here. Another point is that if Anders was to lose his seat it doesn't mean that the Liberals or NDP are swept to power. It would be a fairly obvious vote against a candidate, specifically if the replacing MP was an independent.
You are forgetting the green shift and the coalition.
