Reminds me of last October federal election when I was going to vote "strategically" first time and favour Liberals against incumbent Conservatives---until the Liberal party so confident of victory was caught advising the oil and gas industry before the election how to lobby their new government.

Liberals ruled half of the last century because of consummate skill of talking left and ruling from the right. I about-turned for another trouncing to my usually favoured party, the left-of-centre NDP which I'm currently on the outs because of its big-city dilettantish, unrealistic green leanings. It's always complicated, isn't it?
