In other words you want to pick and choose your reasons for 
supporting the NDP, the same way others are choosing NCHS to
oppose the NDP. You are a single issue supporter, which 
could still cause youn problems, because if the NDP are
willing to pull a 180 on Welfare, they are just as likely
to do the same thinfg to health.

I support a number of the environmental initiatives of the
NDP and the Freedom of Information legislation. But they
pulled a 180 on freedom of speech and freedom of the press
with their elections legislation. Why? Because they were
down in the polls and they wanted to stack the deck in
their favour despite the cost to democracy. 

If the public had the same attitude to the environment as
they do toward welfare, the NDP would serve up the old
growth forest in a second. As it is, I think the NDP have
successfully hoodwinked the environment lobby while
clea-cutting continues unabated.
