How does this make Canada a colony of Quebec?
|
Because the Fibs and Dippers can't do squat without the Bloc, since its pretty obvious the Cons won't keep them afloat. So, essentially, everything needs the approval of Quebec to pass.

Quite true. After Duceppe finishes bleeding the government dry by holding Bloc votes hostage, we won't be able to afford spoons....

The GG needs to do what is right for Canada, and call for an election.

Course they have, the Bloc has gained an amazing amount of power over the rest of Canada in order to keep this government a float.
The Conservatives might as well walk out of parliment, not bother voting on anything and not recognize the government period.
They should just focus on fund raising for the next election.

I sent in a request to end my membership with the party and for them not to contact me with anymore of their communications or fund raising pleas.

Layton is two-faced for bringing the NDP to power for the first time in the party's history...

I really hope Harper is working behind the scenes to bring over enough Liberal MPs to the Conservative Party. Throw them whatever bone you need. Cabinet posts are fair game.

"Coalition will last at least 18 months."
That goes against the very thing the electorate voted for. A minority government. Now however, this coalition will govern as if they have a majority. The CPC have been rendered completely useless.

Agreed. May as well sink to the same level as these crooks. At least the economy won't be decimated by Harper bribing a dozen Liberals with Cabinet posts. Note, the dollar lost its gains today and is down .64 cents on this already.

A seperatist...running Canada.

Yup. Pretty much. To get anything passed, the coalition would have to put something in that would benefit Quebec more than any other province. Duceppe would be the guy in power.

No question about it when you consider he campaigned against the Libs and the Bloc just 6 weeks ago.
Two faced, bald faced liar.
