Finally - a ray of hope for 'coalition' supporters.  This should have happened   
   years ago, but between the NDP and the Greens.  If the NDP has to do it now -   
   to stop a repeat of what the Harper government did to Canada - then, better   
   late than never.   
      
   Our environment and our basic human-ness depend on keeping the Cons out of   
   power.

   Scheer called on Canadians to give him a majority, saying the alternative was   
   a coalition between the Liberals and New Democrats that would generate massive   
   budget deficits.   
      
   “(It would be) a government where Justin Trudeau may be the spokesperson,   
   but the New Democrats are calling the shots,” Scheer told reporters in   
   Winnipeg, Manitoba.   ❤ ヅ       
      
   Singh indicated on Sunday he was open to a coalition with the Liberals, who   
   have struggled to open a lead since the emergence last month of photos from   
   years ago showing Trudeau in blackface.   
      
   Canada has only had one formal coalition, in 1917 during World War One. The   
   New Democrats have struck deals to keep minority Liberal governments in power,   
   most notably from 1972 to 1974 and in 2005.   
      
   Asked about a possible coalition with the New Democrats, Trudeau replied:   
   “I’m campaigning hard to stop Conservative cuts and elect a progressive   
   government.”
