Looks like Michael Ignatieff has put the welfare of Canada before his own career aspirations by agreeing to conditionally support the budget announced by the Tories on Tuesday. I think the Liberals are to be commended for this move; the last thing Canada needs right now is an aggressive coalition takeover. Jack Layton and Giles Duseppe are already frothing at the mouth about getting oh soooooo close to defeating their arch enemy. Imagine what they would have been like if Ignatieff had sided with them and the coalition actually assumed power. You would have had to use a cattle-prod to calm Jack down.
So now the NDP is on the attack against the Liberals. Wow, the whole Obama message of cooperation and transparency really didn't get down to Jack's height or translate into French for Giles, did it? It's all about getting Stephen Harper out, at any cost. Well, that's really the job of the Canadian people. Maybe they'll do a better job at the next election.
