Harper seems to be doing an excellent job of staying in the 30-40% popular vote range, by toeing the Conservative MO of simultaneously offering no worthwhile solutions and viciously attacking anybody else's. I really don't know what will break the political stalemate here. Dion has the right ideas, but he absolutely lacks the strength of character to back his beliefs with action (aka the Paul Martin syndrome), and, maybe it's just me, but I swear his English is getting worse every day.
You're right though, the level of apathy in Canada these days is frightening.

"Dion has the right ideas, but he absolutely lacks the strength of character to back his beliefs with action (aka the Paul Martin syndrome), and, maybe it's just me, but I swear his English is getting worse every day."
I'm with you. Dion is just not a strong leader. When the National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy published their report on the path forward and suggested a carbon tax, Dion was with Harper in slamming the idea. I'm glad he's changed his mind but it doesn't help with his case as being a good leader.
