I've never been a fan of coalitions.

I’m not sure that really describes the situation with the NDP in any way. This is a party that has been a really solid part of the Canadian political landscape forever, not some fringe party full of radicals.
They’ve accomplished less than I would’ve hoped in working with the Liberals but more than they would have without. I get the eager to desire to paint them as the junior Liberals but it’s just not based on much.
