Guinness said:I don't believe Jack Layton really believes in what he says, his statements are inflammatory and extreme in order to act as a counter-balance to the other extreme, the Conservatives. Similar to the women on "The View", where one is liberal thinking, the other is ultra-conservative and then Rosey, who is the extreme left, much like Layton. They all have their role, whether they believe in their paradigm or not. I think the parties in Canada are similar, putting on a front and playing their roles - don't hate poor old Jack, he just plays a jackass! Every government needs their pinkos, whether we like 'em or not.
I don't agree with your statements. Firstly, the conservatives aren't "extremists". The Bloc, the Liberals and the Conservatives are all fairly moderate in their views. The only way that the NDP could be more extreme is for them to rename themselves the Green Party.
