cnews.ca poll on the you’ve got to be kidding party, sort of:  “NDP is irrelevant”

CORRECT!

Actually, I think it’s more complicated than that.  We don’t need a half dozen parties all essentially going in the same direction.  How many progressive parties do we need in one country?  Certainly the far-left NDP exist only because they’re constantly, gratuitously, needlessly propped-up by the liberal-left media to help advance the left-wing agenda that is now well-established in that culture; as well as by the huge bank accounts of the owners of the party, the often militant and Marxist-oriented labor unions and teacher unions, which are themselves irrelevant and far worse than merely irrelevant.  So they are in fact irrelevant as a party.  Thus my proper name for them, the you’ve got to be kidding party. 

But the Liberals and Conservatives are both progressive parties and are almost indistinguishable in every respect.  It’s no wonder the polls are constantly tied between them.  They should just join together with the you’ve got to be kidding party, and call themselves the Fabian Socialist Party of Canada; possibly also sticking the words “Progressive” or “Populist” or “Giant Nanny-State Government” in there somewhere.  Oh and also “Gay ‘Marriage’” and “Abortion”.  And “State-Owned Media”.  It’s gonna be a long party name.

Then a bunch of us (including the three actual conservatives in the Conservative Party) who believe in freedom, free markets and capitalism, personal responsibility, small limited government, families, traditional Judeo-Christian values, and other conservative tenets which have actually built strong, free, ebullient, rich, safe, democratic countries, can form the Actual Conservative Party of Canada.  Actually maybe we could do that anyway, and give Canadians a real choice. 

Tea anyone?

Comments do not necessarily reflect or in any way represent the opinion of the main blog entry writer or owner of this site, and claims to the contrary are spurious. Distasteful, abusive, hateful, or annoying remarks will likely be deleted; but since this is a relatively open forum, bad comments may accidentally remain on this site. The fact that a comment remains does not indicate an endorsement of the views.

    I’ve often wondered, if Harper had a solid majority whether he would take his party back to the roots of the traditional Conservatism you’ve mentioned in your article?

    He is after-all basically a social Conservative is he not?

    Is it perhaps because he doesn’t that is causing him to kowtow to the wretched far left extremist liberals & communist & socialist electorate?

    But Joel. The dippers are always speaking on behalf of all Canadians. I hear it said continually. So it must be true.

    I could hardly believe “ProudToBeCanadian” was available when I was looking for a web site domain name.  No liberal thought of it?  It took a true blue CONSERVATIVE to think of buying that name and starting a web site built around it?  What does that tell you?  ...  Please remember to support this site.

    I’m really not sure how conservative Stephen Harper is. He has come to embrace Keynesian economics and one world governance to make everything better. I have no fear Stephen Harper will be making any hard moves to the right with a majority. If anything I would anticipate more of the leftward trend he’s already on. Because remember he is an extreme right winger and scary. I wish.

    I know you’re just kidding but actually it’s true.  The socialist Hugo Chavez administration says so.

    Well let’s face it Joel. Chavez is the go to guy for our media. I’m not sure why the left love him so. Is it because he’s a commie? The left and their media along with public education have the platform to mold the language and perceptions they wish the dirty masses to absorb. And for the most part Canadians are very teachable. The CPC and Harper as untraright is quite the joke. In my opinion the liberals are still in charge. They go by all kinds of names. Reform has been long since dead and buried. What a coup for Red Tories. Ultraright, I wish.
