- Kelly McParland: Ignatieff did the right thing. Now he should do it again
-
I'm so hopelessly naive when it comes to politics that I actually think Michael Ignatieff made the right decision in avoiding a summer election.
He shouldn't have threatened it in the first place, making himself look bad when he eventually backed away. But backing away was the correct thing to do, given that he had no platform, no distinguishing policies (Employment Insurance, don't make me laugh), no campaign team worth the name, little experience as leader, dubious finances and no sign of public support.
