6. A center-right party
the old torries. We really have no equivalent here, unless you want to imagine Lincoln Chaffee and Joe Lieberman alone in a room.

Anyway, they just decided to commit suicide and merge with the far-right Alliance. A large number of their members opposed that move, of course, and are switching over to the center-left Liberal Party.

Edited on Fri Dec-12-03 12:54 PM by HEyHEY
Bloc once when I lived in Quebec. Just because no one else had a chance of winning where I was so I decided to be the first British COlumbian to vote bloc. The Bloc won by 10,000 votes too so I don't feel guilty

25. This is really out of date
The platforms have changed since then. Two parties have disappeared ( to be replaced with another).

I know I'm closer to the NDP position on many things, but they're unelectable so come election time you'll see me banging Liberal signs in the ground, not NDP.

26. Yeah, it's way out of date. Haven't found anything more current, though.
The website says it put it together for the last election, and will put together another one in time for April.
