> needs the support of either the NDP (left of the Liberal Party) or the Conservatives (right of Liberal Party) to get things done

That's simply not true. They can do anything they want without the agreement of any of them. Check the seats, you missed some.



Time to bone up on your high school civics lessons!


Time to learn that an opposition party has more seats than NDP and is not the PCC.

OP said the LPC needs NDP or PCC to get a majority but it is not true at all.


How do you figure? The liberals currently have 157 seats out of 338, they need the support of at least one other party on confidence motions (that party could be the Bloc as well)


Yes. It can be the bloc. That's what I was saying. He said no way without NDP or PCC but that's false.


He seems to have missed the difference between a majority and a plurality.


How did I miss anything ? I'm saying they can get majority without the NDP and PCC.
