Rather than pontificating from the sidelines, he has concluded that it is absolutely nonsensical that a party with barely a third of the votes cast in the past few elections, should become the government and implement, law by law, regulation by regulation, a neoconservative agenda, when fully 60% of voters wanted something else – something not as neoconservative.

We could all sit around debating how many angels dance on a needle point, or we could adopt something practical like the Cullen Plan, and take steps to turf Harper out in 2015.

Whatever follows Harper will be better for millions of Canadians – that’s what millions of Canadians hoped for when they cast votes in the past few elections.

It’s time to get real, and do what it takes to change our government for a better one.

That’s why I back the Cullen Plan – it is a whiff of realism in an otherwise unreal political situation.
