This will mark Canada's demise. An ex Blackrock executive for US-CA relations, he will sell our lives for a quick buck and a place near his mates.

We didn't have much choice. PP is such a pushover that he would have speedrun us into the US. We were between a rock and a hard place and both choices were shite. Too bad the NDP couldn't stop sucking off JT while he was in office. They ruined our chances of having a real opposition.

I'll always respect Singh for choosing the country over his political ambitions when he didn't let the CPC trigger an earlier election. However it didn't work out well for the NDP, this kind of political play looked bad but in reality they put country over politics, which was used against them again and again in the outlets owned by Postmedia.

With that said, an Avi or Rob NDP would probably fare much better during the next election, don't you think?

Not last time. It was "do Canadians want to become the CNMI now, or in a year?"

Those are the choices you're told you have. There are always others.

What are the assumptions you're making about what constitutes an option?
