well, they sucked. they rode a wave of leftist indignation to a second place showing, then elected a fucking liberal. actually, that's not fair - mulcair has demonstrated that he's opposed to ideology, in general, and merely seeks power. so, they elected a megalomaniac masquerading as a fucking liberal.

suck. sorry.
