Actually, yes I am. it's not crazy if youthink about it. the middle ground in this country is virtually identical. How else can you get Charest to be liberal premier? Sooo.. how do you make a party palatable to the country?
Marry the tempered fiscal responsibility of a small c conservative party with the not to distant social conciousness of a small L liberal party, invoke a visceral Trudeau-mania, a young guy who has charisma and pedigree, and presto! Party which can lead the great majority of voters in this country.
We only leave the far left and right out. Who needs anything more than one standard deviation from the norm anyways? Justin probably doesn't even know what the NEP was or may be able to deal with the relatively minor oil issue in a more acceptable manner ( heard that the comparable cost of oil back then would work out to about $75/bbl), so no problem.
not far fetched at all.
