Re: "Election?" editorial N.P.

... The editorial is an interesting, if somewhat illogical, attempt to link issues to our minority government situation.
... Unfortunately, an election at this point will return another Conservative minority government.
... However, no matter what the outcome, the Conservatives must call an election soon, as they are no longer able to govern against the unofficial coalition of the opposition parties. Also, Canadians deserve an election because Mr. Harper has mis-represented himself as a fiscal conservative, having clearly proven himself to be as irresponsible as the previous Liberal government.
... Of course, summer is the nicest time for the predictable barricades and strikes, organised by the usual non-representative goons- who, unable to conceive of any constructive contributions to our society, instead delight in disruption and disorder. To attribute the timing of these group's "actions" to anything other than the weather, is to wildly over-estimate their capacity for anything beyond the most crude calculations.
... So, we find ourselves in the odd situation of requiring an election which will resolve nothing...
