bcholmesDid you know that we have 21 different parties in this election? Everything from the Vegan party to the People First Republic Party of Ontario to the Pauper Party. Family Coalition is still clinging on by their fingernails -- in recent years they've branched out from being a one-issue party ("abortion is EVIL!") to a two-issue party ("and teh gays shouldn't get married!"). The Socialist Party of Ontario and the Communist Party of Canada (Ontario) are splitting the far left vote.
Most people seem to believe that the Greens are no longer part of the fringe, which is interesting.
