Really? Well I'm not that much of an anarchist. Okay maybe I am. I guess just because I believe in a "nordic model" of life and have a look the lassie faire policy on drugs I guess that makes me weird.

No problemn at all SD, I was  just disgusted with myself for not being at the more extreme liberal end as I'd always presumed!

Yeah the only problem I have with this test is that its a little misleading. For instance, my views are an example of what the U.S. could be. I always wanted it to become more european but after '00, '02, '04 I realised that this country's puritan ways can never go away. I realised that the european outlook on life aka social democracy will never touch these borders.

  I took the test about 8 months ago and I was a little further to the left by two spaces.

Oh dear! Time to take a crash-course. But you're right, I don't think that European social democracy will ever reach the US (more's the pity).

But for Canada thats a differnt story. The conservative government really doesn't represent the majority of Canadians. (No to little MP's in the big three).  The NDP has always been considered the third party but I garuntee that within the next 25 years they will form a government.  Also watch out for the green party.

  After this tenure the tories will most like go back to a interior b.c./alberta party.  That's what happens when in reality you are just a regional party that really only represents a certain geographical population.  For example the conservatives will never get there majority if they can't crack Quebec. But there ideals don't mix with Quebec. If you look at all the MP's from Quebec there PC's not reformers. Reformers run the Conservative party and not the PC's. Thus the social conservatism that the reformers preach isn't going to fly in Quebec.

  And the funny thing is that the Green Party really represents British Columbia. Its where its first seats in Ottawa will come from. Shows that BC'ers care about the future.

  Its funny how the province next to it has a completely differnt outlook on life.  Some people say its due to Vancouver's isolation.  Well that isolation is going to cause a political movement.

the federal NDP will never,ever form a majority government in the house.

  their brand of sotgwpdm is reactionary and too far left.it scares the hell out of canadians.

  they would spend money faster than it can be collected as revenue for the government,and we would be in deep fiscal crisis,far worse than anyone can imagine.

  this is not my personal opinion this is policy straight from the federal NDP themselves.

  they will always remain a symbolic federal party,occasionally making moderate gains here and there.

Very interesting test.  I honestly had no idea where I "ranked" in my views.  This gives me some idea.  I am a left wing libertarian anarchist?

  Damnit.  It won't paste my results.  

  Anyway, I'm just around the Dalai Lama.

  Whoda thunk?  Of course I AM pro choice, pro legalize pot, anti spanking etc.

really? Do we actually know that for sure? You don't know until you've tried.

  From wikipedia:

   Both the provincial and federal wings of the NDP largely support the nationalization of energy industries, and to a lesser extent, the telecommunications sector. It has been responsible for several such nationalizations in the past. New Democrats also advocate, among other things, gay rights, high quality public transport, reduced post-secondary tuition fees, fully socialized healthcare, strict gun control, more progressive taxes, greater welfare benefits, gender equality, electoral reform, environmental protection, labour and Aboriginal rights, and the elimination of child poverty.

 They sound a lot like these guys:

 Last time I checked Sweden and Norway are the best places to live.

The NDP came into power just in BC and destroyed any chance that anyone in this province will ever vote for that party again, unless they're a nurse or a teacher.  It has taken YEARS to undo the damage.  I couldn't allow them to get their hands on our entire country.

  Oh my god...

no,they were not "basically NDP'ers". they were centre to centre left.

  what's works in sweden and other social democracies in northern europe may not suit canada and it's unique needs and economy.

  the european social model isn't something to be held so high in regard,above all else as though it were the final evolution of the human political experience/process.

  it has bankrupted france and has caused a decline in french standards or living and economic performance.

  it has slowed germany down to a snails pace with economic activity waining.

  russia has choosen to not follow the social democratic model,wonder why?

  the UK is increasingly leaving the so called third way.

    the following link will bring you to the real heart of the NDP. and will reveal the real intentions of the party.
