### Fourteen years ago the New Democratic Party was the Official Opposition in Parliament. Now they are down to 5 miserable seats. Here in BC the hapless Premiere Eby called a cynical snap election and was soundly trounced at the polls and election booths. So, what went wrong?

### Some say the New Democrats are victims of their own successes. They worked for decades as "the balance of power" in the House of Commons and provincial legislatures. They gave us Pensions, Free Education, Medicare, Pharmacare, Daycare, etc.

### Now what? The NDP jails eco-activists. They support NATO expansion. They ignore the pleas of unions for more legal protections. They approve and fund pipelines. They utterly fail to help much less end the homeless crisis on our streets.

### They seem to be morphing into a vague Liberalism. Is it corruption? Neglect? Loss of vision and vitality?

### Let's talk about it!
