An Accord on a Cooperative Government to Address the Present
Economic Crisis

A Policy Accord to Address the Present Economic Crisis

Some work I did on the weekend:

People who voted for the Conservatives: 10,493,047

People who voted for the Liberals: 7,349,977

People who voted for the NDP: 5,065,144

People who voted for the Liberals & NDP combined: 12,415,121

People who voted for the Bloc Quebecois: 2,778,758

Combined, the Liberals, NDP, and Bloc represent 15,193,879.

Total votes for the smaller parties (Christian Heritage, Communist, Greens, Independents etc):

2,213,995

Total votes that weren’t for the Conservatives:

17,407,874

A Coalition Government therefore would be democratically representative, despite what Stephen Harper has said.
