The NDP need a extension, before they come good on their donations. The other parties had no problem coming out with theirs, so what are the up to?

Considering EC just informed them that they need to repay donations because EC didn't feel that the price they were selling advertising for was "fair market value," it makes sense that they would need an extension to work out the issue.

"History I believe furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free and civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance, of which their political as well as their religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purpose."

When the NDP is in power and has been proven to be as corrupt and guilty of a number of fraudulent acts as the Harper Conservatives have committed during their tenure, get back to us and we'll talk.

Until then, this is minor compared to the massive attacks against Canadians that the Harper government has committed.

“This is all about who you represent,” Mr. Dewar (NDP) said. “We’re (NDP) talking about representing the interests of working people and everyday Canadians and they [the Conservatives] are about representing the fund managers who come in and fleece our companies and our country.

Complete nonsense. Serious to us, not to the 'elected' leaders.

Election fraud? Give me a break. They sold advertising for their convention at a price that Elections Canada didn't feel was "fair market value." They're allowed to sell advertising space. All of the parties do it. The problem is that you're not allowed to sell advertising space say for $10,000 when the "fair market value," as determined by Elections Canada, is $8,000. This whole issue is not as big of a deal as you're making it out to be. And it sure as hell isn't election fraud.

So all parties do it so it is ok then. How many times have I heard that on this board. How the rules and the posting change when the NDP are involved.

All parties sell advertising at their conventions because it is completely within the rules and legal to do so.

Let me repeat the problem for you again, since you obviously didn't get it the first time.

The illegal portion of the contributions is the cost of advertising that EXCEEDS fair market value. Selling the advertising is not illegal; that's why I said all parties do it. The money that they got in excess of fair market value is against the rules for Elections Canada and it will be paid back.

Wow, ain't that right... imagine the hyperventilating had been the CPC.

I’m beginning to believe “Harper derangement syndrome” is more than just a catchy phrase. Those poor ‘progressives’ have snapped due to the undue strain of having to live under a Tory gov’t. and Stephen Harper.

What in the world are you talking about?

This very thread displays plenty of "hyperventilating" about what the NDP has done.
