The Green Party doesn't get to go to the party ... Oh wait now they do

Well I was going to write about how Elisabeth May, leader of the Green party is pretty upset about being cut out of the debate. But now I guess i'll write about the fact that shes now in the debate
It's kinda like their that kid in class that crys when everyone else gets invited to the birthday party but then the kid having the party feels sorry for them and invites them anyways.

The whole issue seemed to revolve around May's assertion that it was undemocratic to keep her from the debate. Of course it might be unfair but as elections Canada and the courts have ruled before the debate is not a part of the political process, at least not legally. There is no requirement to have a debate or for any of the leaders to attend. The Debate is put on at the desire of the media to have something to write about for a few days, and also over the hope that someone will make a profound speech or a fool of themselves.

Still it's probably better than the Conservatives and the NDP both decided to relent on their desires the keep the Greens from the debate. They can always hope that May blinded by the studio lights will suddenly state her secret desire to drive a humvee through a rain forest and hunt down something endangered.
