Indeed, LH. The hard core NDP philosophies are unacceptable to many Canucks. Now, their stance today on, say, the military, might be quite different from years ago, but Canucks of yore still remember why they didn't "sign up". Now... try to find all that kinda stuff. Go to their website. It ain't there. Easy to find it on the web and research it? Somewhat, but not really entertaining enough for young BUSY Canucks. Anybody under about 40 years old gonna do it? No.

BTW, I pick their stance on the military years ago because my forefathers lived through wars and thought that anyone who would severely downgrade the military was not acceptable as a party. Debatable? Of course. Acceptable to my parents? Not a hope.

Now, I ain't gonna get into any debate or provide detailed support or anything else... I am just sayin that's the way I remember things.
