Here you have 2 real choices, the Liberals and the Conservative party, both offer fairly centrist political viewpoints that really offer similar differences between the US Democratic and Republican parties. Then you have 1 wingnut socialist party run under a banner of social equality (read wacko socialist ideals based on economic downfall), then you have the Green party which offers nothing but a voice of reason to the wingnut socialists. Then you have the biggest waste of a party, a provincial pride party that does nothing but screw up the power balance in parliament.

Well, it was a matter of necessity. Either the political system allowed many different sensitivities to get into the parliament or we'd keep killing each other in largely unnecessary civil wars.
