Support for the federal Liberal party is crumbling, so much so that the New Democratic Party appears to have a realistic chance of forming the official Opposition, according to a new poll commissioned for Canwest News Service and Global National.

There is a chance, that if the NDP and Liberals come about even, and the BQ holds strong in Quebec that the Bloc could become the Official Opposition.

It's true it already happen in the past when the right was divided! Therefor since the left is divided the same thing could happen again

So please could you (the 60% majority of Canadian who are leaning left) make up your mind and pick a party to defeat the Conservative!

PS: to the Liberal fan: Stéphane Dion is radioactive Ok so accept defeat for this election and lend your vote to the NDP for this election so that we don't end up with Conservative Majority, and pick a real leader for the next election OK.

Thank you.

The funny thing about BC is that in the past several elections, whether it was the Tories or the Reform or the Alliance, the NDP and the Liberals were always close before the election but once the writ was dropped, the Tories/Alliance/Reform surged ahead into the election. That appears to be happening again.
