"But it’s almost a truism in Canadian politics that lots of people like what the NDP is all about ... but just not quite enough to actually vote for them."
Through minority governments and without ever receiving a majority the NDP have been able to create some the most important polices in this countries history. Health Care, Student Loans, CPP and our Maple Leaf flag were all the result of the Liberals and NDP working together. Yet deep down most of us cringe at the thought of them running the country. They just seem too reckless with money.
