This is the same argument that my original comment is against. You just labelled the Liberal + NDP bucket as "left".

No. I said anyone sitting left of them, as in left of the conservative party. God knows that the Liberal party is neoliberal which isn't left at all. Just slightly left of the CPC.

There is no collective "left" of all NDP + Liberal voters.

Well that's true. And that's what I was trying to say in my comment. The real "left" isn't voting for the Liberals. But the real "left" is broken down into multiple parties, with the NDP being the biggest one.

That being said, that's one of the reasons why the CPC is so strong compared to the rest. And that's also why the NDP had to make an alliance with the Liberal party. This allows them to pass legislation with a little bit of compromise from both NDP and Liberals.
