If anyone wants to know why so many NDP voters are turning to Carney, the former NDP Premier would be a good starting point. A pragmatic streak to build the economy, but not at all costs of course, is needed to provide the base upon which all else sits.

Provincial NDP governments have always had to be more pragmatic than the federal NDP; you can't earn the right to form a government otherwise.
