That's what I mean - he's standing pat and saying "I need to see it", essentially making it a non-issue. If he were to accept it and it turns out to be ugly, it will make things pretty difficult for him after the election once people see the details. While I'm sure that the conservatives and NDP will paint this as being wishy-washy, this is one instance where waiting to commit is pretty responsible.
Mulcair, of course, has nothing to lose by loudly opposing it.
