The Greens should definitely be in the debates. Whatever deal they have with the Liberals is a separate issue which is bigger than the debates.
Perhaps if there is some backscratching going on between May and Dion then that should be looked upon critically, but I personally find it insulting that Green voters (like me) aren't represented on TV because the other parties think we are rolling out the red carpet for the Liberal party.
Any vote splitting worries... well maybe given the risk of more Harper, it's a valid concern, but is that a good enough reason to sacrifice open democracy by excluding a legal participant in the debate!?
