The NDP, as the nominal social democratic alternative, finds itself in an almost impossible political position.

    NDP undoubtedly cleverly leveraged their positio in the past, but public opinion is blind and fickle so nobody will give them credit for anything. In other words we’re f#cked unless Poliviere buries himself somehow…
