It is definitely beneficial to them right now in terms of getting a few things done like their health care plans (dental and pharmacare) but if the Liberals continue to slide in popularity and in policy implementation that negative will transfer over to the NDP to some degree as well. It might be tough to establish separation when you prop up and support a failing entity.
