    Now, yes. But it didn’t used to be. Prior to Jack Layton shifting the NDP to center-left the party continuously battled against the neo-liberal politics of both the Tory and Liberals.

    I mean just consider if Canada had stayed in a for-profit healthcare system … do we actually think any one of those 3, or for that matter any provincial gov’t, would now be seeking to implement universal healthcare like the NDP’s Tommy Douglas did in Saskatchewan?
