This is the most stereotypically leftist thing I’ve ever heard. Layton had a real chance to become the best PM we’ve ever had, but people STILL attack him from the left. Much easier to purity test anyone out of contention and complain from the sidelines!

I grew up in Saskatchewan in the 60’s-70’s where the NDP was born. My grandfather ran for the CCF and I’ve watched the NDP move to a centre-left mandate that reminds me how much we’ve lost.

But do go on telling me how I don’t know anything.

What have we lost? The NDP has never governed. We’ve lost nothing.

We lost a mid-to-far left option … you know, the party, led by a Baptist minister, that created universal healthcare.
