“The Liberal Party would not agree to a coalition. In January, we did not support a coalition. And we do not support a coalition today or tomorrow,” he told reporters in Ottawa.

Bonus! March 31st…. “Michael Ignatieff says he is ready to lead a new coalition government unless Stephen Harper’s Conservatives scrap their attack ads, drop their partisan edge and present a budget that addresses the needs of Canada’s struggling economy.” (update – the link is also from December, the page was “updated” in March)

Indy @12:28 – “Vote Conservative *OR VOTE NDP*, but don’t vote for the party that you know is lying to you!”
Oh no you di-unt!!!
Oh, look who showed up, it’s Bah-lack O’Mamba, and she’s snap’n her neck. That’s hot!
Ever since you threatened to “crayola” me, you always manage to get a rise out of me.
I stand-by what I said. If you’re a socialist then so be it, vote NDP, it’s a free country. I’m simply stating that I would prefer people get off the fence and quit holding up the business of the government, at a price much larger than the cost of an election, or three. Voting for the Liberals is a stall tactic, hoping to stall the government until the Liberals finally become the party everyone who still votes for them wishes they were. Nobody is voting Liberal, even in Ontario, because they think the Liberals will do a good job!
So I’m saying it again, ISHT or get off the pot Ontario!
2008 election results:

There is a difference between working with other parties in a minority government and giving the Bloc a virtual veto on all the countries business when they are not represented in anyway outside of Ontario. That is not democracy!
Keep in mind I respect Quebec’s right to vote for a separatist party and one that looks out for whom it represents; and, I have no problem with any party working with them for the betterment of all Canadians and Canada.
Hey everybody Ulianov the laundry detergent salesman is back. You know the guy. The guy can’t see the difference can you see the difference?
Well now that you mention it I can see a difference. The cooperation Harper wanted was to force an election whereas the coalition Jack, Gilles and the other guys want is to replace the sitting government and nullify the results of the recently held election all the while seeking to avoid the next election.
“outside of Ontario”
Obviously I meant Quebec. My bad:(
I refuse to watch or read anything further which features a Canadian politician.
Canadian news is nothing but liberal and NDP press releases.
Canada is now worse than eastern europe.
We need to know more detail about what each PM planed to bring to help society:
health canada need more or better mangment and
to have better service for time and hold patient in long waiting list
thier plan must be better orgizned
Canada must come out of Afganstan after new election let other NATO to handle the rest probems in afganstan
ban the gun in Canada unless with limit
I may be wrong in some detail below but we need to know what PM plan to do better education of kid
School just started and too much good they can do to help these kids in future
This kids can help all their parents they are treasure and investment for all future
by teach them respect to parent to law and to public and first of all to take care of themselves
This is important to change in new education:
School text book, make sure what they need to study
Weight of text book carry by children is too heavy more than 30kilo will cause back pain for children, Have insurance for safety of children if they get injured in their high school yard
If children start working early must also able to report to government like adult.
If child is working with high salary the mandatory private in road school need for them
Not allow their parent to spoil the children like Michael Jackson or Britney spears to made their parent money and destroy them soon.
Put more length to skirt of catholic school girl and how to seat properly in public and streetcar
They need to encourage children to participate in what they need to eat per day
And calories fruit and bread
And based on age they can made plan for monthly plan or yearly plan
if kids can organized how to eat daily when they finish high school they can be more in depend when they went to university of take healthy food
How to have social life
How to have not too much books information not too little but also need enough balance study for children made them smart
Ignatieff needs to be asked,and pressed for an answer,”What would you have done differently if the co-alition was put in power?” A simple question that he should be able to understand,unlike the walking corpse that preceded him. Just because the liberals do not like Harper is not a very good reason to call an election. It is childish.I do wish the cbc would do their job and start to ask the tough questions.
Uli quote of quote:
“We respectfully point out that the opposition parties, who together constitute a majority in the House, have been in close consultation. We believe that, should a request for dissolution arise this should give you cause, as constitutional practice has determined, to consult the opposition leaders and consider all of your options before exercising your constitutional authority.”
Well obviously that’s identical to signing a coalition (more than minority government, with two or more parties governing, with cabinet representation), weeks after an election which left the government 12 seats short of a majority, with 29 more seats than the combined (minority) coalition.
Happens every day (actually zero precedent) and perfectly legal. Great, then run on it, instead of lying about it.
BTW, after Grits explicitly stating during that election that there would be no cooperation, minority or coalition between Libs and NDP.
Uli the idiot Grit apologist strikes again. Chretien used to get away with that relativistic BS, Martin tried with no success, but Ignatieff will convince the Canadian voter with his coded “I won’t enter into a coalition, provided I win the next election,” as he presents his non-platform, with zero experience at being tested under fire (ie-not parachuted into the job).
Good luck with that one.
more idea to made practically work for children:
Use the brain and use body healthy by regular exercise clean body and in take daily food
How to coop with stress and how to work in team work
Education reform can be very good but can be make it worst
Prevent sex in early age
How to protect themselves with bullying
How to help kid with disability or stuttering or walking or weight problems
Capitalism only likes to sell thing to kids not made them useful for them
Cut horrible movies and have good mentally smart game for kids and
So many other things
How to deal between different races
Public and private school
Uniform with short or not wear uniform discus that
use box in each school allow each kid get the book and read and return it back if they want as free book circulated among people make sure that is sanitize too and or simple better library for each school.
Keep recycle the book you read in box in school for sanitized and give them back
Have they need to have clean water fountain for drinking water for kid
camp for children as visit go out of school and back home at night
Have food for kids in school warm to eat
Have safe ride to home
Have security of children their parent are working and they back home alone
Kids with high degree of lenses glass prescription can not do basketball and bring cost of glass or disable kids can get supported
Teachers and principal be more disciple and understand each kid from day one arrival and have file for him and her to know them personally
The time playing in playground and after school in basketball can put them in drugs need police stay in all parks while kid are playing or security guard
bring children regularly to mosque and church and etc made them have friend while their parent are there and made them have gathering less bother than they go to dance club and made mosque and church more enjoy to have healthy gathering and have food or breakfast to community know each other
In case of children who has criminla recored they need to have 24/7 supervise by parents come school and back home and /or ahve attendenca care to help them and supervise tehm do not allow childrenw ith record back to school easy with no supervise.
make thier life with priority differen than adult
Humpty Iggy sat on a wall.
Humpty Iggy had a great fall.
All Taliban Jack’s horses

Cannot put Humpty Iggy together again!
Iggy wears the albatross of the Separatist Coalition forever and a day.
Iggy jumped into the Klingon DooDoo willingly with Jack and Gilles.
Now, Iggy smells like DooDoo.
“In fact, there’s nothing Mr. Ignatieff can say to neutralize the Conservatives’ Scary Coalition Campaign.”
…-
“Chris Selley: The Liberals have no comeback to coalition scare tactics”
“In fact, there’s nothing Mr. Ignatieff can say to neutralize the Conservatives’ Scary Coalition Campaign. To the extent they are vulnerable to coalition fearmongering, they will remain vulnerable to it until… well, I suppose until they lose an election and don’t attempt to form a coalition to usurp the winners. First and foremost, this is because Mr. Ignatieff is a politician, and even the most Pollyannaish Canadians know a politician’s guarantee isn’t worth the hot air on which it’s carried. No less an analogue than Mr. Ignatieff’s immediate predecessor, Mr. Dion, feverishly denied the possibility of forming a post-election coalition with the New Democrats, and then — poof! Presto changeo! Alakazam! We had a full-blown Parliamentary crisis on our hands.”

I have been unable to locate the letter that Dion signed with the Bloc last year in which he gave teh Bloc a veto if the Liberal/NDP coalition came into effect. Can anyone help by providing a link?
Indy @6:48 – b…aby, I ain’t Irish!
(p.s. – what I really like about that scene is how my Samurai Sword is carry-on luggage. YOU try pulling that off!)
But seriously, don’t vote NDP. You’ll wind up sleepwalking like Lady Macbeth, and you remember how well everything turned out for her…
If you must throw your vote away, vote for the Marxist-Trotskyites or the Hemp Party. The NDP are a fairly serious if basically idiotic threat. Don’t encourage them.
What bother me the most about liberal?
Was Sep 11, 2001 was hit of Muslim in Canada started and
Jean Chrétien
Must know that was not Muslim behind the scene
Later on Oct 20, 2003 he enter Canada to Afghanistan while we should involve with them the root of help Afghanistan is more time of 20 years need to help them
All cause open all
Treat of RCMP later hit from small young terror in Canada while strange is this:
Then Jean Chrétien become close to Queen of in 2009 England and all to me smell fishy
Jean Chrétien signed anything easy
And later Dion brouh Green party and dump them in
And now collation and now they try to dump them in
I do not see liberal are so honest
I also see conservative since 2005-2006 by their new election defame Muslim more using Afganstan and all court hearing are so aggressive and not open and allow Muslim work freely and do not wish them made good profit
24% not vote is so much number cause nobody will get majority in next election if they changed by how they treat Muslim not get changed
All I read all story of Haled is link strongly with young from sheikh from Saudi and Pakistan and they used Haled as target on 2005 then why not arrested Mr. Khan in link in England is under question and you bring
Doubt of George Bush and conservative to bit Muslim more
New market is mostly Italian live and all other link of I see was something fishy with
National post to link them and their wrong news and Mr. Russell Jewish lawyer is strange to me!!!
natioanl post said:plot terror 18 member in canada
first of all his lawyer said worst tahn other about him and on May 2009 all evidence did nto proof all thing said about him and so many unknow I saw about him and 7 other was left he was stayed and Newmarket all was target play of game to me!!!
”
since 2005 Khalid was a target of an RCMP undercover investigation called Project Osage, Canada’s most high-profile counter-terrorism operation since the 9/11 attacks. Eighteen suspects were arrested but charges against seven were eventually stayed. Nine adults are scheduled to go on trial early next year.
The Canadian investigation was launched by CSIS and targeted Toronto-area youths the agency believed had adopted an al-Qaeda-type extremist ideology. The RCMP began its own investigation, called Project Osage, in 2005 and paid Mr. Shaikh and a second agent named Shaher Elsohemy to infiltrate the group.
Three months after the arrests, the RCMP Explosives Disposal Unit tested a bomb like the ones the group had allegedly intended to detonate in Toronto.”
I means Muslim who has education are not able to work well and if made owned business are not welcome and get target for BS and
Now we ask court systems not like Muslim
And as we
Changed the criminal court and public view about Muslim and we change all bad people got fired to go and now how this bad few are leave us alone
Need good government to support us not put us down?
Any more and stop abuse against Muslim in Canada
”
at teh end we need smart Prime minster to respect Muslim rigt and let us work and have freedom and freedom of speech and work among canadain free without lable us to crime never did happend!!
we understand we are different but we have right to have good busienss profitable to run too
new , your diatribes make me happily long for a pork roast .
new — interesting comments.
Two Yen,
No link necessary just a little arithmetic … add up Libs and NDP and compare that number to the Cons.
143 Cons
77 Libs
49 Bloc
37 NDP
Speaking of Chretien, I maintain that we had an illegitimate MAJORITY Liberal gov’t in 1997, with powers to pass legislation unilaterally when it really had no authority to do so. The Liberals “won” 155 seats in the ‘97 election, just 4 over the 151 needed at the time. How much of the Adscam money helped in electing Liberals in Quebec that year? Only 5 seats needed in that province of the total 75 available makes that probable. And if that’s the case, that’s even more criminal than the theft of the money that was never recovered. We could have dozens of pieces of bogus Liberal legislation enacted into law between ‘97 and 2000 — any that passed only as a result of every single Liberal vote needed — that should (but never would) be subject to constitutional challenge, if their was some way to prove that at least 5 of their Quebec seats were won as a result of fraud. Perhaps Duff Conacher of Democracy Watch has something to say on that… then again, he’s too busy attacking PMSH to bother, or even care.
Just to think, if we had a legitimate result in ‘97, the true composition of that parliament could’ve forced the MINORITY Liberal gov’t into reversing its broken promise on the GST, or at least having gotten us all a 2 point cut way back then, instead of having to wait 9 years to see this happen.

Sorry for getting back so late. You don’t need a link, you only need to read the coalition document. The coalition is between the Libs and the Dippers with the Bloc agreeing to sustain coalition for years to come by agreeing not to bring down the government. This means to any logical thinker that the Lib/Dipper coalition only works if the Bloc is appeased. That is a veto! You can get technical with lawyer talk if you’d like, but reasonable people see the coalition for what it is. To quote Barak Obama: “you can put lipstick on a pig…”.
All of that being said, I believe your question was cynical and I’m wasting my time. I suspect you’re not interested in a discussion with anyone you disagree with.
