I probably have a different way of explaining it than most people.<br /><br />As for the question I have to admit,"trust us or the coalition" approach is a good one. The coalition already failed. I also have to say that the strenght of Harper during a campain is the simplicity of his message. That is where the Liberals have failed. Liberal or Conservative will not make any difference both parties are clueless.Sylvain Plourdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14235222897255823899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4455704640278051306.post-4476222315584502542010-10-05T21:10:26.412-04:002010-10-05T21:10:26.412-04:00Thanks for the comment.

On non-national unity related policy they are quite similar. However, the national unity question is not a trivial element that can be dismissed such that they can now be seen as being similar. It's a raison d'etre for the Bloc, defining who they are.<br /><br />In terms of the question and the "trust us or the coalition" approach, look at debates in the House, look at the talking points issued to government MPs - this is the line they are using with increasingly regularity.<br /><br />Please, keep the comments and feedback coming! The points you raise are important ones if we are to have a good dialogue on the choices we, as voters, face.<br /><br />PoliticsWatcherA Guy Watching Politicshttp://politicswatcher.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4455704640278051306.post-29220950485478281102010-10-04T23:46:22.806-04:002010-10-04T23:46:22.806-04:00Bonjour,
I would like to know the difference betw...Bonjour,<br /><br />I would like to know the difference between the NDP and the Bloc? To me they are the same, two parties that cannot aspire to be in power.<br /><br />You wrote "To start, we have a government focused on making the economy the issue (rightly so)", I agree the economy is important, unfortunately they will never do anything to make it better and make Canada a leading economy in the world. The federal keeps cutting services and dump it in the provinces backyard.<br /><br />Now "Do you trust us or the coalition?", well let's see the campaign a lot of things can happen but I doubt Ignatief will be able to get the Liberals back to the power. He does not have any charisma and much credibility.<br /><br />Who ever gets in will do like the others did and does, old recipies, same messages, same results, same failure. The health care system, the education (I know it is the province competence, unemployement, nothing will get better.<br /><br />The truth is, the middle class will keep getting poorer, the poorer will never get more money, the poor kids that do not eat before going to go to school will not eat more, the elderly will not get better care etc...<br /><br />I personally do not have any faith in any of the politician we have in Canada.<br /><br />Sylvain PlourdeSylvain Plourdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14235222897255823899noreply@blogger.com
