Have to say, the NDP municipal infrastructure plan is something I wish the Libs and Cons would steal.

Ignatieff repeating himself from last night, talking about Harper being controlling and creeping Facebook and banning a veteran from one of his events. I guess he's hoping French voters didn't tune in for the English debate yesterday?

I don't see a problem with him saying the same thing in English and in French. Better than saying one thing in English and something else in French.
Duceppe is doing the same thing now, talking about the language law exceptions in telecom, banking etc.

Now Duceppe is doing the same thing, trying to bring Bill 101 up again.

Yeah, at least the messaging is consistent, but I was hoping for new content rather than just repeating their points from yesterday in a different language.

Duceppe calls out both Harper and Ignatieff for being pro-Iraq war in 2003.

I like Ignatieff's position when it comes to crime prevention through education. As the old expression goes, "people with jobs don't rob liquor stores".

Overall in the english debate I thought Harper was the most professional of all the candidates, he really impressed me the most
the worst was Michael Ignatieff he sounded arrogant

Yes, because having a president is essential for the existence of a coalition government. Someone should contact Prime Minister Cameron immediately...

That would have been pertinent if I was arguing about the specific implementation of a coalition government in question rather than the concept.

Duceppe with a sucker punch against Harper: "You do background checks on citizens attending your rallies but not on the people who work in your own office."

Bah, Layton talking about capping credit card interest rates at prime+5%. I have no sympathy whatsoever for people who can't spend within their means and rack up a credit card bill they can't afford.

Norm!

That was actually pretty well handled by Duceppe, Layton looked a little petty.

Layton: "It's not just enough to oppose Mr. Harper, we have to replace him. And that's what the NDP can do."
Yeah, you keep hanging onto that dream, Jack.
Duceppe rightly calls him out on it.

Bringing up Iraq is pretty stupid IMO.
A lot of people were mislead. Get over it.

The Quebec nation can get stuffed. The pandering has gone for far too long.

Unemployment is a calculation from the total labour force. The Labour force only constitutes those who can work (no children or people over a certain age).
