I do think Mulcair and his team made a mistake in refusing to participate in any debate that doesn't include Harper. He should have said Harper doesn't get to control the debate agenda and agreed to participate in the consortium debate especially because Harper refuses to do so, imo.

I want the NDP to win. I hope Mulcair reverses his decision on this.
