To be honest under Canada’s system of government which is based on the government securing the confidence of Parliament periodically, if a government falls another election will be called pronto unless elements of the opposition can muster enough support in the eyes of the Governor-General to itself form a government. If then the ‘new’ government was defeated then a new election would be called by the Governor-General. With a coalition being formally signed by the Liberal Party, the NDP, and the Bloc Quebeccois the latter won’t happen. Yes, traditionally the party with the most seats in Parliament is supposed to form a government but it is not required. Thus what the ‘coalition is proposing to do is NOT illegal; again it is not illegal; undemocratic yes, Machiavellian yes, power-grabbing yes. Again this has the fingerprints of Obama all over it.

“Again this has the fingerprints of Obama all over it.”

LMAO. You think that twit is involved in international intrigue? That’s a good one.

I doubt he even cares beyond a “oh that’s nice” reaction.
