Globe & Mail asks:
“Can the NDP remake itself and socialism into an attractive political option for Canadians?”
28% yes
72% no
1. Why bother when there’s the Liberal Party? The NDP and the Liberal Party should of course get married. Layton should be the head wife. Or humanoid parental unit “A”, or whatever the liberal-left call family members these days.
2. Are they kidding? Socialism is already seen as an attractive political option for nearly every Canadian. It’s why I have this web site. It’s why I critique the very most visible and celebrated symbols of it, the state-owned, state-run CBC, and the North Korean-style healthcare system, and the left-wing promoting academia, and the left-wing courts, and more, all of which Canadians almost universally love so much that they ensure by their action or lack thereof that they continue to exist in strengthened, more insoluble form with every passing day. Canadians know nothing but the values of socialism. It’s taught to them every day, and enforced by laws and policies and government dictums.
The question is or should be: can FREE MARKET CAPITALISM become an attractive option again, when pitted against the forces of the now well entrenched liberal-left five-column onslaught under which this country is in almost complete thrall?
3. But moreover, since the NDP and its (usually) totally hidden socialist agenda (I can hardly believe the G&M let the “socialism” word slip out here) exists today solely because the liberal-left media share its core values and its world view and prop it up all day long and pretend that it is in fact even relevant and worth discussing even though it’s not, then certainly it can be “remade”. But it won’t be remaking “itself”. That’s ludicrous. Like all socialists, it’s not a matter of doing anything “itself”. No no. “It takes a village”. A village made up of, for example, left-wing media hacks who keep gratuitously promoting it and propping it up.
As they did here.
