Liberals / NDP merger a non-starter; NDP-Greens union means victory
I don't know where the Liberal Party of Canada / NDP merger talk originated, however it is likely a hangover from Iggy's demoralizing lack of leadership, and all such verbosity will fade as Young Trudeau takes centre stage for the Libs.
The truly progressive vote in Canada is split between the environmentally inclined social democrats the Green Party, and the social democrat environmentalists known as the NDP. You can argue the fine points but the realpolitik means that if we continue to compete against one another, we will not become the government in this most blessed of nations.
We have people working to unify progressive forces in Vancouver and Toronto, and would love to add PEI, Quebec and all of Canada to the movement for unity and victory. What do readers think, should we unify the provincial parties first, and then the national groups, or should Ottawa take the leadership role and make the first move?
Either way, when it comes to a vote at party membership level, I am extremely confident that the resolutions will pass overwhelmingly, creating the Green Democratic Party of Canada, our country's next governing party.
