[Canada] Canadian Politics Redux

I wonder why he thinks only men can vote 

[Barrister]

I may eat my hat if the NDP wins.

I'm not saying I'm worried, but I am looking at hat recipes on the internet...

All the polls are showing minority though.  So do you have a PC-Wildrose ruling coalition, or a PC-NDP?

If it's a coalition government, does BB only have to eat half his hat?

Yeah, I wonder what 'winning the election' means.  If the NDP get the most seats, but the PCs and Wildrose form a coalition, does he win or lose?

If that's the scenario then we all lose.

Pretty sure anything that involves "Premier Notley" means we all lose...

A PC-NDP coalition would be the best outcome in my not so humble opinion.  No one deserves a majority here.  Prentice as Premier with a strong NDP check would be a delightful experiment that shouldn't cause too much trouble.

[Neil]

I definitely don't want a Wildrose government.  Their rural focus and risk of Republican-influenced policies are horrible.  I definitely don't want a PC government.  If they manage to get through this in one piece, the Brazenness of their thefts will know no bounds.  Plus the party has Stephen Mandel and Thomas Lukaszuk.  I definitely don't want an NDP government.  Because I'm neither poor, nor non-white, nor a woman, nor old, nor a union member, nor a worthless faggot, they don't care about me, and have nothing to offer me.

[Neil]

Watching the debate, I have to say that Jean wasn't ready for an election right now, and it shows.  He just keeps banging that same 'The other parties will raise your taxes' drum.  Prentice and Notley both looked like premier material, and I really think it's a shame that Prentice doesn't stand a chance, what with all the PC baggage weighing him down like an anchor.

Alberta claims to be the Texas of Canada but is about to elect the NDP? Some frozen Texas you guys are.

Those households function on the Spicey model of democracy. He knows who counts here.

His model is the the best model. Spiceyism uber alles

Don't count us out yet.

The bet was about the NDP winning the election not about who gets the most seats.  So if any other party forms government, by whatever means, then I lose the bet.  But if the NDP form a coalition government I win.  The chances of that are so incredibly low though that if I win the bet that way I would think BB would get me a very very good beer.
