Question: How will the inclusion of the Green Party in televised debates change the outcome of this election?
Answer: With the Green Party and Elizabeth May in full swing, there are votes that will be taken away from all parties since the Greens are getting much more mention in the news. Another important boost for the Greens is Blair Wilson switching to become the first Green Party MP last week. The Conservatives had a very big chance of beating Stephane Dion?s Green Shift because he was not able to explain it well. Now that Elizabeth is in the fight, Stephen Harper will have a harder time attacking those who support a carbon tax. However, it is most likely that the increased support for the Green Party will come from the Liberals and the NDP.
