What an exciting time of renewal. The current situation is a demonstration of why we need a change to proportional representation rather than first past the post. In reality, the coalition may show that proportional representation may be a 21st century option as it will represent the values of 65% of the voters rather than the dictates of a party that only represents 35% of the population.
If we only had the type of renewal that we see in the United States where we see true leadership with Barack Obama who has been reaching out to those who ran against him within his own party and even those in the GOP. Before he formally takes power he is reaching out in an inclusive bipartisan manner and inviting those that may not share his views to dialogue with him to move forward with his agenda of change to confront the unparalleled financial and world crises.
Then I consider Mr. Harper and his cabinet ministers.
