^That is a good concept, but obviously not reality. Right now Canada has a right wing that only a few years ago people thought would never survive in a singular party. The exact same things were said in the early 00's that are being said now about more potential cooperation between the Liberals and NDP.

Personally, I like multi-party systems. But only when the balance is there and it isn't one right wing party unified against a multi-party split on the left.

This is getting above and beyond the Ontario election, but to end this one statement I'd like to see a Liberal-NDP coalition (official) in a future federal election to bring down the Harper government. The parties don't have to dissolve and become one if it is too controversial, but they do need to work together and accept that the right in Canada is unified and can't be beat unless more cooperation happens.

Any NDP voter who truly thinks the NDP can stand alone and beat Harper nationally is only kidding themselves. The Liberals also can't do it and need to learn to work with the NDP in a coalition, that is if these parties can't merge.
