| McDonald said: I don't know a ton about this coalition government idea but I do know i don't like it. Stephane Dion would make a crappy PM. Also NDP is a socialist party and I hate them. This coalition government in non-democratic. The people didn't decide on this, they voted in Stephen Harper, not a coalition of the three losing parties. They should either have another election (so conservatives can win again) or they should shut the fuck up and let Harper do his job. |
On the contrary. you don't vote for the prime minister, you vote for parliament. a coalition of the Liberals and NDP with written support from the bloc makes up the majority of parliament. That's completely inline with what we all voted for and it's entirely democratic.
Why would there be another election if there is a body in Parliament that has a majority and can pass legislation?
If you're opposed for ideological reasons "right good, left bad", then that's ok, we can have that argument.
If you're opposed for political reasons "power grabs, personal motives" cool, that's a much more interesting argument
But trying to paint this as somehow undemocratic is wrong. The Conservatives do not have a majority.
