I support a coalition
Ian | 28 November, 2008 | 21:59For the short term, I believe (and I’m not the only one) that what Canada needs is a coalition government, that’s willing to govern.
That government clearly isn’t Mr. Harper’s minority, so it’s time for Jack and Stephane to put aside their (major) differences and work through the current crisis.
At the very least, this also gives the NDP a good chance to push for electoral reform including proportional representation.
Finally, I’ll be at the New Democrat Youth of Alberta conference tomorrow, which will feature Linda Duncan, who would make a fine environment minister, and will report any of her opinions on the current boiling pot that has become Canadian politics.

It’ll be good for Canada to have a coalition government. The last thing we needed was for opportunistic Conservatives to be ramming through contentious, and idealogical claptrap. We can use a year of consensus government, and a break from the shrill voices.
