That is ridiculous. It sounded to me like they were talking about some sort of constitutional crisis that doesn't exist. The Conservatives have a clear plurality of seats, and it is the Governor-General, not the PM, that forms a government.
Al Gore?
Sounds like a Democrat. You may have big problems up there!
What about a Grand Coalition for Canada! a la Germany. Has anyone suggested that yet?
CBC is doing damage control to say the vote was to "punish the liberals"
They are trying to undermine the legitimacy of the results by saying this is just temporary to punich the left. Thus implying just wait until the next election.
Why couldn't c-span get something other than canadian left wing propaganda?
Not quite. The GG is only the head of state. One of the parties, usually the one with most of the seats will go to the GG to ask to form the government. However, there have been times in Canada where the Grits who had less than the Tories in seats formed a government with a coalition. You have to go back to 1925 federally.
Canadian liberals are far too much like their American counterparts.
They can't imagine that they don't get EVERTHING they want.
Spoiled babies.
No wonder the younger generations have a growing contempt for the Baby Boom generation. After the cheapening of life that generation has demonstrated with making abortion a matter of convenience, I can just imagine what the Boomers have set themselves up for when they are no longer able to set the rules or fend off those who do.
And it's hard to argue that they won't deserve it.
