“Mr. MacDonald said he wasn’t surprised at the result. The opposition leaders have been clear that they wouldn’t support changing the law to take effect retroactively and clear the Tories’ budget deficit. NDP Leader Darrell Dexter said his party is going to present an alternative to the way government has been run for the last 10 years.”
