The Opportunist, the Socialist, and the Separtist

What is the coalition contemplated by the Liberals, NDP and Bloc really about? I don't believe it has anything to do with the economy. The Conservatives have presented the best plan possible, do nothing. I don't believe it has to do with cutting taxpayer funds supporting political parties. A coalition government simply in response to cutting this funding is overkill as the threat of voting this down would have caused the Conservatives to budge.

I believe that the idea of a coalition was in the works since possibly before the previous election. We know for a fact that the NDP and Bloc have had some sort of agreement in the works for sometime now (Click here for audio clip.) If this is the case then there was nothing that Harper could have done to avoid this mess. The three loser parties wanted a coalition from the day they lost the last election and no matter what Harper had included in this current budget a coalition was going to be formed.

If conservatives are truly concerned about restoring political stability to Canada the in-fighting and blaming of Harper must end. If not, the coalition will have won on multiple fronts. Not only will they usurp governing power they will have divided and conquered the strongest party in Canada, setting the Conservatives back a couple decades. If that happens the only people to blame will be the conservatives that chose to focus their fighting on their leader rather than the true source of contention, the coalition parties.
