MODERATORS
You want a two-party system, then. That's pretty much the only way for parties to never work strategically.
No. That's not what they're saying at all.
The NDP is not in government. Trudeau did not form a coalition, he decided to form a single-party cabinet in a hung parliament. This is how this always plays out.If he wanted stability, he could have formed a coalition.
Formal coalition vs. informal support is a distinction without a difference, though.
Well, no.
I want a system that's actually designed to support multiple parties. Westminster ain't it.
Former British colonies are still suffering from the effects of first-past-the-post.
Somebody's always propping up another party if you're Germany or Norway or Spain, though, or you don't have a government. That's what I mean. We have something like 2.5 parties, so we're not used to it, but it's how it's "supposed" to work.
There's no formal coalition agreement, and I don't see Trudeau scrambling to offer cabinet posts to NDP MPs.
The less formal arrangement they had lasted a pretty long time, all things considered.
But Singh doesn't owe him anything.
