Short term memory? Our "Conservativie" and "Alliance" parties merged in the attempt to avoid right-wing vote splitting. If that becomes a trend the number of parties will shrink. Of course then, being Canadian, someone else will come along and start up a party "more representative of the people". I've forgotten how the US Political party system started. > Us Canadians are a lot like the people that live in the apartment up stairs. > The guys down stairs are always parting, making noise late at night, using > up all the hot water and parking in our parking space...
