NDP是有人才的。HARPER就任命了Manitoba NDP Premier Gary Doer为驻美大使。

"On August 27, 2009 Doer announced he would not seek re-election in the 2011 election, and on August 28, 2009 he was nominated by Prime Minister Stephen Harper to succeed Michael Wilson as Canadian ambassador to the United States. He was formally sworn into that position on October 19, 2009, and on the same day Greg Selinger was sworn in as his replacement as Premier of Manitoba. Doer's former constituency assistant Matt Wiebe subsequently won the by-election to succeed Doer as MLA for Concordia on March 2, 2010."

NDP没那么可怕。NDP在好几个省执过政，或正在执政。现在是NDP在联邦政府发挥作用的时候了。

驻美大使 is like 公關. It is not policy maker.

对的. NDP 在 Manitoba 省执政作得很好, 走中间路线, 没有甚么问题, 非常得人心. LAYTON 还把他作榜样在劝大家别担心NDP乱搞.

若果是他当政, NDP 在联邦执政也会大受欢迎的.
