To the Editor:
I am not sure which analogy fits the Green Party best: the religious zealot who believes his/her particular faith is the only way to salvation or petulant child who when offered one cookie stomps away with nothing because they feel they deserve two cookies. That is what the Green Party is doing by spitting the progressive vote.
They will help elect a Liberal government, which will give them not one but two pipelines, fracking, the Site C dam, more genetically modified crop approvals, a ski resort on the Jumbo Glacier with a $2 billion road to it and more. The NDP will give them most of what they seek, but not all.
What the Green Party needs to realize is when you seek an all or nothing solutions most often you end up with nothing!
