Comments: yes. the liberals would only have wasted the money anyway. that's all they're good at. if the people of the province wanted the opposition to have more funding, they would have elected more opposition memebers, but they didn't. the liberals, with a caucus of just three, can't seriously expect to get the same level of funding with three members as they would if they had many more members in their ranks. the ndp shouldn't have gotten anything, period. they don't even have official party status in the house of assembly. they would need at least three members to have that. and lorraine michael should not be getting extra salary, as she currently is, for being the leader of a so-called recognized third party. one person does not a party make, in my opinion! plus the ndp is not even an official party in the hoa.
