If No-body Wants An Election, Then Why ?

If nobody wants an election and nobody is for it, then why are elections ads starting to run and why are we about to have an election call?
The opposition parties have been quick to say, they don't want an election. It's Stephen Harper's fault and they are all happy to work with him.
Really, flash back a week or so. Remember the big Liberal get together in Sudbury and Michael Ignatieff bellowing - Mr.Harper, Your Time is Up
Well if a poll supposedly to be released tomorrow is correct, then it may be Mr. Ignatieff's time that is up. Reports indicate the poll may show the Conservatives have opened up enough of a lead to form a majority government. The report also apparently will show that the gain has come at the expense of Jack Layton's New Democratic Party. No wonder they are pointing the finger at Harper and saying he wants an election we don't. Even Gilles Duceppe has pointed the finger at Harper leaving you to wonder if the good folks of Quebec have tired of sending toothless federal representatives to Ottawa.
Bloc Leader Gilles Duceppe said a fall election appears inevitable at this point and his party is ready to fight it.
“I have the firm conviction that barring a major change there will be an election,” Duceppe said Tuesday.
He said the Bloc’s strategy will be to stress there is not much of a difference between Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff.
While Liberal Leader Ignatieff would not speculate on the timing of a possible election, he said his party could not support the Tories out of principle.
“We believe that if you’re running the largest deficit in history, terrible unemployment numbers, record bankruptcies and you’re letting Canadian champions down, you’re not investing in the jobs of tomorrow and the know-how of tomorrow, then we can’t support you,” he said. “And we need to present Canadians with an alternative and that’s what we’re going to do.”
Meanwhile, NDP Leader Jack Layton said on CTV’s Power Play that his party “called on Mr. Harper to reach out to other parties and try to make Parliament work but . . . he hasn’t been willing to do that.”
in an interview Green Party Leader Elizabeth May acknowledged a fall federal election is the last thing she, or Canadians, want.
“Hundreds of people told me they don’t want another election,” May said in an interview with the Victoria Times Colonist. “Five years, four elections. What’s wrong with this picture?”
Conservative party spokesman Dimitri Soudas called the election talks by opposition party leaders “unfortunate” and said the Tory government will instead focus on economic recovery when Parliament resumes next week.
So no-one wants an election but greed and the lust for power will take precedence over a wasted 300 million or so dollars and this fall it will be the election that nobody wants.
