Before we leave

I wonder which way all of those new civil servants will vote if we ever get a fiscal conservative running for election who promises to cut all those redundant civil servants?

I don't think it will matter, I think there is catastrophic damage done to the Liberal brand that they don't stand a chance at forming government in the next election, maybe two.

What's the best the political parties that don't stand a chance at forming government can hope for? Holding the Conservatives to a minority government? What a dysfunctional system. One right of center party, two left of center parties and one self-seeking regional party that can occupy too many seats in the House of Commons. What would it take to change it when those regions of Canada wielding the most seats would never want to forfeit any power. We need more balance and fairer representation. It would be interesting to note each provinces percentage of Canada's GDP. The GDP/capita is an interesting comparison.
