There’s a first. I couldn’t finish my question due to heckling from the NDP. So much for Jack Layton’s call for civility. #cdnpoli

Via Mike, who notes;
I was reminded of the axiom… Don’t step into someone else’s family feud.
Mind if I pray for that asteroid?
Confusion to the enemy!
The Luddites are heckling each other. That’s a problem? You would figure they could agree how to destroy the economy. I hope they do enough gerrymandering to get rid of Lizzy May. Split the tree-huggers into downtown Vancouver ridings.
Go on, commies. Eeeeaaaaattttt each other. Don’t mind us 🙂
I may be wrong,but whyTF was she even yipping? Don’t you have to be an official party,with a certain number of elected members?
BM….you bring the coals and lighter fluid,I’ll spring for the dip,popcorn, and beer.
Heh.
“…was she even yipping? Don’t you have to be an official party,with a certain number of elected members?” – Gawd, I dunno. I think random meth addicts could wander in off the street and pose much better questions. They’d be prettier, too.
I know that the NDP has canonised Jack but surely no one else buys this load of excrescence.
Beaverus interruptus.
Nice to see Little Beaver getting the reverence she deserves.
I reject the necessity of having a Green party.
Environment is very very important but you don’t
need to have a party based solely on that.
Imagine a Education party who only care about education issues. We don’t need that.
Green party people should join the NDP.
They are welcome.
Perhaps some day when The Green Party finally holds government, they’ll ban heckling.
And decree blasphemy illegal.
I hear socialists eat their young, old and weak.
Why is she complaining they’re her kinda people?
As much as I detest Elizabeth May and her own shrill and demented approach to issues, I support her in her call for civil discourse. You either support a principle or you don’t. You cannot pick and choose your virtues or principles. It does you no good to say I did not support that principle at that time because it was not convienient to do so or it disadvantaged my enemy… You are either principled or you are not.
After her performance at the 2006 leaders debate, she can’t complain about uncivil and being talked over.
Green party people should join the NDP.
They are welcome.

I agree. Just like the separatists, they are all the same bunch of sheep, pretending that they would like a truly socialist state.
Perhaps those young kids from Quebec don’t even recognise her…
Elizabeth May’s just finding out now that the NDP are uncivilized, leering, baboons? ‘Always knew she was behind the 8-ball.
As Joseph points out, after her disgraceful behaviour in the leaders’ debate a few years ago, she’s a fine one to talk — or call for civility.
Pot. Kettle. Black.
I love it when the left bash each other in the head,
Time to break out the popcorn.
“Teeth” had to sit down , cause that lunch-hour doobie made her lose her train of thought.
The worst part is she’s pretty much guaranteed to be in the next leaders debate.
The heckling wasn’t even that bad. She just got a pouty look on her face and sat down.
Regarding the remark about her being on the next leaders debate?
I really how Harper insists this time that he is only required to debate one opposition leader at a time, just making three stipulation would make her head explode.
Gee NDP, weren’t you a little hard on the beaver yesterday?
(Apologies to Ward and June Cleaver)
Meh.
Green party = Red party
NDP = Down the slippery slope of commie land(just not hardcore enough)
That’s why the green party exists. The more the left is fractured the better it is as a whole for the rest of Canada. Though the collapse of the centre-left is more troubling.
Eli@1:18 PM makes a very good point. Much as we all detested the Liberals, they were centre-left, and sooner or later the Conservatives are going to lose the support of the electorate.
That is not likely so long as PMSH is alive and well, but one infarction and the Conservatives would be thrown into the hands of less competent people,
possibly for instance more tolerant of corruption than Mr. Harper is. And who knows what Toronto will do in the next General Election?
Crazy Lizzie May can dish it out but she cries foul when it comes the other way.She is now and will always be on the fringes of Canadian Politics.She can convince a few enviro-whackos from BC to elect her but she and her opinions do not fly any where else.Even the idiots from the NDP won t have anything to do with her.
