Jan, there's not a party in the House of Commons that will stop this, including the NDP. The one voice of sanity is Elizabeth May's and, on what matters to our kids and grandkids, Green policies are overall sound.
You're right, this transcends partisanship and stands no chance of being resolved by a technocratic Parliament. This fight is ours - yours and mine. We can't count on our political class to fight this one, they won't.
When the IMF attacks inequality and the rightwing Economist calls for "radical centrist politics" to heal our societies and economies and drive out the oligarchs, the time for that radical prescription has plainly arrived.
To me the critical issues of this century for Canada are the environment, inequality and dismantling the media cartel that powerfully obstructs needed change.
You know this is what is really important today, not political gamemanship.
