Globe & Mail On A Fresh Liberal Majority?
Globe & Mail Reports Liberal Strategist Predicting Majority
A Liberal strategist claims that the Liberals could make gains in Ontario and the West in order to secure a majority government.
Openly admitting that the Liberals would try to stay in the political middle, the strategist believes ground can be taken from the centre-left, while marginalizing the Conservatives as extreme right.
What this brazen admission shows is the the Governing party in Canada does not believe anything except what is expedient for maintaining and solidifying power.
The crisis of Confederation in Canada has partially resulted from such small-minded partisanship.
Albertans will not have patience much longer for the Governing party's hegemony. And those espousing a New Albertanism have already realized that the rules of the game are set by Ontario. If they win every time, why keep playing?
