Martin Aiming for Harper's Job: Leader of the Opposition

I was reading the news as reported by CTV, because it's convenient (it pops up with MSN messenger). Now, though I can hardly say they're a respectable or even better than mediocre news outlet, something they wrote made me realize just how badly Martin's campaign is going.
"But
Liberal Leader Paul Martin, especially, has been lobbing grenades at Harper
on a daily basis, criticizing him and his policies during almost every
announcement he makes."

What's that got to do with his campaign? Well, the party leaders roles in our system goes a little something like this:

  • The PM (and his party) make policy.
  • The leader of the Opposition criticize policy.

Martin's gunning for the leadership of the Opposition benches!?
