Will CRTC stop gagging the Green Party by CPAC from NDP CBC at next Canadian fed election TV debate

My question was badly written. It should say "The NDP Party is wrong to censure the Green Party. The CRTC needs to overrule the TV networks demanding that they ignore the veto power of the NDP, Conservatives and the Liberals"

The CRTC (Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission) is stacked: http://www.anarchist...ctLegislation )

Separately, and my main point:
The Canadian New Democratic Party (NDP) with their veto power forced the TV networks and the TV channel CPAC (the national cable TV owners association) to keep The Green Party out of the last TV debate in the previous Canadian federal election.

WHY ?
The Green Party voters would have split the NDP vote. The NDP says they already have a veto on the next federal election, but obviously you won't be told about the veto on TV because the TV networks are too scared to air the subject.

SOLUTION ?
Do you want to censor the Green Party, ban the Greens again at the next federal election TV debate, so that we can try to get the so-called *socialist* NDP Party elected ?

In a democracy all should have an equal voice

I agree with the questioner that the greens should not be censored.

Just FYI, CPAC, CTV, CBC, and I forget the other one all formed a consortium to televise the National Debates. CPAC wasn't alone in nixing the Green Party. An interesting comment; Peter Kent, National news editor for the CTV voted on the consortium to keep the Green Party out. The very next day, he took a leave of absence and declared his candidacy for the Conservative Party in Trinity Spadina. (Toronto Riding).
The intersection of politics and media; incestuous, and a mutual ball scratching exercise.
