You can see the real reason the Conservatives won right here in this thread. Kasz's chart clearly shows how the entire political compass has been dragged to the right (apparently also towards authoritarianism, can't wait until the entire country is run by the PMO and we don't need these annoying MPs) over the years. People now describe centrist policies as the "extreme left."

The NDP surge is a counter-reaction to this tectonic shift. Most people gravitate towards the center, which is why the Liberals have been the natural governing party for so long. Now that the NDP is the only major national party anywhere near the center, it's battle between the new moderates and the extreme right.


there is a reason Canadians in this thread avoid talking about the Political Compass chart.   its batshit crazy.  just like how it can have me out left and yet still right on top of the conservative party on things like the vote compass.  harper took the right and formed it into a strong moderate conservative party. 

you can keep your sore-loser talk up if you wish, but its really just sad.
