Two of Parliament Hill's greatest warriors, Jean Chrétien and Edward Broadbent, are trying to put together a coalition deal between their two respective parties, the Liberals and the NDP.
How this version of Let's Make a Deal plays out is anyone's guess. But Broadbent had a lot of spunk in him when he came back to the Hill (only to retire again early because of his wife's illness), and Chrétien warned his colleagues they hadn't seen the last of him. Who would have thought as a facilitator?
There's a lot to bridge between the two groups, let alone the Bloc whose support would absolutely be needed. But the creeks between them are nothing compared to the gulf that separates all three from CRAP. Of course, Flaherty can always come up with something that all Canadians would find more reasonable.
Tick, tick, tick ...
