Polling among NDP members?

I think not!

Im an NDP member and I'm for a merger, or at the very least talking about it. Neither the NDP nor the Liberals alone stand a chance against the Conservatives.

At the next NDP convention forward a motion for the NDP to enter merger talks with the liberals.Or have it done through your riding association.Either way get ready for a huge fight when debate opens on the floor!

Good luck!

I don't care what they call it as long as it's un-conservative - a far more natural governing ideology than we're being subjected to.

I think he means UNREPUBLICAN, as the current government seems more in tune with the antics of Newt Gingrich then of Sir John A MacDonald.

Classic chretien, all about him, the only reason he is saying that, because in his head he was the ''liberal party'' and with out him, they will never win again, that what it is all about, chretien.

All this whining about "we dont have enough parties to vote for"... "we need to be more like Europe"... Blah Blah Blah.. Maybe your just upset that the majority of Canadians want the Tories to stay..

You could simply choose from the Animal Alliance-Environment Voters ·Canadian Action ·Christian Heritage ·Communist ·First Peoples ·Libertarian ·Marxist–Leninist ·Marijuana ·Pirate ·Progressive Canadian ·Rhinoceros ·United ·Western Block... Oh, maybe your just dont have a party that is "your" choice".. Dont like it? Form a party...

This Merger talk??? A "Merger" between the LPC and NDP is ONLY about being in power... The ideologies between the 2 are so far apart, the suggestion to for a viable party with the interest of Canadians in mind is laughable.. It would be a race to demolish Canada the fastest..

A plurality not a majority. A majority do not want the Tories to stay.

I think this is the first time I have ever agreed with PIK.

I have to agree with Chretien that the Liberals and NDP basically ask the same questions, with the same concerns.

Last poll I saw said 40%. Almost the same percentage of people want the NDP to have a shot.

Not even close. Had a election today you would know that.
