In the limelight |
The Liberals, though, have just faded. No reforming, reshaping or reawakening. The party of Lester Pearson and Pierre Trudeau is a shadow of its former self. They lost the election. But not just that. Their leader, Michael Ignatieff, lost his seat! They are robbed of the possibility of being the official opposition. That now goes to the New Democratic Party, fast becoming an electable body of political opinion.
However, the man of the moment is Stephen Harper. He can smile broadly. Unlike David Cameron, Harper needs no coalition. He governs on his own terms.
