Green.... the New Red.

the Green Party is nothing more than a liberal lapdog. The news of Green Candidates folding their campaign, or urging their electorate to vote liberal instaed of for THEM, just because they want to "get" Harper.
It's politics at it's worst. Don't worry about having a sustainable plan yourself, don't worry about your credibility with your electorate, campaign for support, and then sell out.
despicable.
I hope the Green supporters vote NDP instead. That would be the biggest kick in the teeth to both May, and Dion.

The conservatives called this at the start of the election, they knew when it came close to the election day the greens would tell their supporters to vote Liberal.

GREEN SUPPORTER: ELIZABETH MAY HAS SOLD US OUT !
SENATOR MAY ? ENVIRONMENT MINISTER MAY ?
With less than 48 hours to go before voters go to the polls across Canada, emotions are running high within campaigns faltering within sight of the finish line. In recent hours, Bourque has heard from a number of senior political operatives, notably a very senior Liberal organizer who admittedly worked on the leadership bid of one of Stephane Dion's rivals, in other words someone who has much to gain if Dion and his Green Shift are soundly defeated Tuesday. Yet, this still-very-active politico tells Bourque he fears a secret deal has been cooked between Dion and Elizabeth May which may explain why she is now actively telling Green Party supporters to vote Liberal. This, according to our Liberal insider, in exchange for a possible Senate seat and a place as Environment Minister in a Dion-led government. To be clear, Ms May's curious strategy of backing Dion is creating ill-will within her own party to the point that "a lot of Green candidates are upset", according to one national news report this morning. Surprisingly, top Green Party representatives are refusing to respond to a query from this organ as to what is the Party's current position on the Senate. Developing.

Proof that the Liberals will do anything and say anything to get back in power. Say anything

oh Lord, please don't let it be that. May as our environment minister.... I think I'd have to shoot myself if her shrill, whiny voice was made official.

I wonder what the Green Party faithfuls think of May selling out to the Liberals.

Harper has been bang on right on almost everything during this election campaign.
Even the fact that May is now selling out to the Liberals. During the next leaders debate, the Conservatives should be allowed to bring in a second speaker just like the Liberals do.

Any proof to your claims or should we all just chalk this up to typical Liberal mindless BS?
I see that you are not even disputing the fact that the Liberals had two speakers at the debate. Liberals always find a way to cheat. It's in their blood and genes.

The Libs have been winning elections on false promises ever since Trudeau so why should they stop now? It's a party built on lies.
