canada is not a nation-state, the way quebec might purportedly be. that is what he meant to say, and he's right - canada is an artificial colonial construction to organize territory conquered by an empire that no longer exists. it's also a failed state waiting to collapse.

but these two guys had better learn to get along, because the ndp is not going to have enough seats to help the liberals pass legislation any more.

what's unclear right now is if the liberals need one, two or three of the opposition parties onside to help them pass legislation, and if the conservatives do get over 140 seats, the answer could be all three. at the least, there doesn't appear to be any other outcome in front of us besides the necessity of a liberal-bloc agreement to pass a budget.

in fact, the bloc would appear to be the most left-wing party in the spectrum at the moment and the party i'd be most willing to vote for, if i could.

i don't plan to vote on monday, but my endorsement is for the green party.
