[Alberta's Child]

An unashamedly Right-wing politician is poised to shatter decades of middle-ground consensus in Canada's general election today.

It's worth noting that there is nothing "right-wing" about Canada's Tories. Anyone who expects major changes in Canada after this election is going to be sorely disappointed.

[RobbyS]

Whereever liberals stand is for them the middle, that is the CENTER of the universe.

[Information Friendly]

Was that a typo - should it have read "muddle ground consensus"?
