as far as myself and millions of other Canadians are concerned.

The "ethical and corruption" projections by the cons are bunk.

Regardless I can live with a minority Liberal govt with NDP holding the balance of power*

Some NDP'ers who I've met cannot.

The Democratic Party stops at the 49th parallel- doesn't exist in Canada Fiendish Thingy Sep 2021 #15

As I mentioned to "True Dough" I have no interest in parroted talking points from #2TierOtoole Hiawatha Pete Sep 2021 #18

Indeed. The Liberals aren't the only party in Canada with ethical and corruption issues. Nt Fiendish Thingy Sep 2021 #20
