    "[Lib MPs] knew what kind of party they wanted to be a part of from the moment they accepted their nominations; indeed, were they not the type of person that party attracts they would not have been recruited for it. It is the kind of party, and person, that unquestioningly puts loyalty to party before principle — and mercilessly punishes those who do not."

      Andrew Coyne: Expulsions accomplish nothing but vindictiveness for vindictiveness’s sake
      By Andrew Coyne from National Post
      I suspect what truly outrages the Liberal MPs is the sight of a person of conscience, unwilling to sacrifice her principles so readily on the altar of partisanship

      I have long believed that that is the basic mindset of federal Liberals. "I want to do x, y, z good things. I want to serve Canadians. But above all, we must win, for how we can we accomplish anything if we are out of office?"

      This overriding commitment to gaining power explains much of the remarkable success of the Liberal Party of Canada.
