Now, yes. But it didn't used to be. Prior to Jack Layton shifting the NDP to center-left the party continuously battled against the neo-liberal politics of both the Tory and Liberals.

I mean just consider if Canada had stayed in a for-profit healthcare system ... do we actually think any one of those 3, or for that matter any provincial gov't, would now be seeking to implement universal healthcare like the NDP's Tommy Douglas did in Saskatchewan?
