NDP refusing to confirm rumours...

...that, as part of the deal... Gilles Duceppe will be crowned Lord High Emperor of Quebec...
That rumour must have come from the camps of one of the Liberal leadership contenders, not from the NDP, the source said, adding that everything is on the table — including bringing in Liberal House Leader Ralph Goodale to be prime minister.

The co-operation of the Bloc Québécois would be required for any Liberal-NDP coalition to function.

"If the opposition wants to go to the polls on the issue of taxpayer funding of political parties I say bring it on."

"Political suicide... 100% Conservative Parliament."
