If the Greens get a seat in Parliament, maybe they can work with the NDP on that. The consensus seems to be that unless the Liberals are the government, the NDP will be irrelevant. That assumes things remain the same. I would like to see NDP voters vote NDP and not Liberal and to see the Green Party win seats in proportion to the votes they receive, then things may FINALLY get better.<BR/><BR/>A couple of letter writers in The Star have been talking about heat pumps as a way to meet Kyoto. What I don't understand is why the government isn't aggressive in encouraging people to do things like get heat pumps and insulate their houses. The program they have is a joke and useless to someone like me who'd like to do it but has little capital.talk talk talk / Shireenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10453931641034885060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12218227.post-1132873873523237982005-11-24T18:11:00.000-05:002005-11-24T18:11:00.000-05:00The Green Party are still pushing the idea of prop...The Green Party are still pushing the idea of proportional representation. In fact it is and always has been part of their platform. I think it is finally time to give someone else a chance. The liberals have screwed with us and our money for too long. We also need our governments to start thinking about spending money and resources on renewable resources and other sources of energy other than fossil fuels. How else are we going to meet our Kyoto committments?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
