I can’t understand how in this political climate the Liberals think it’s a good idea to open our private data up to the US.
“Elbows up”? Bullshit.
We (collectively) gave them a chance. They’ve proven unable to keep promises or work for the best interest of all Canadians in good faith. The time to start prepping to beat them is now.
My MNA did not respond to my letter on C-2almost two months ago.
I’m going to work to make sure he’s not re-elected.
It hasn’t even been a year!!! Sheesh!
Edit: I can’t believe we’re here already. At a point where we already want a new government, I mean. But I warned people during the elections that they were going to be disappointed after voting liberal.
Well most Canadians don’t want a new government and are happy with Carney. Us here just see the trend signs early and where they’re gonna lead ahead of time.
Really?? Canadians are happy with him? That’s not the vibe I’m getting. Even my parents who are hard core liberals are disappointed.
There’s no one left to elect we would be happy with.
The NDP is an absolute mess.
They would still have been better than wherever the fuck we have right now. They wouldn’t have voted to force the return to work of the Air Canada employees for one.
They would also have put pressure on provincial governments to improve public healthcare services instead of letting them fuck over the system to push for private services. Etc.
They would’ve been so much better. Even if they are a mess.
…how would they have won is my question.
There was near 0% probability of them winning, and almost 50% probability of the cons winning.
Well if the left in this country could stop nitpicking and waiting for the perfect candidate / party to show up and instead give them a chance for once…
Quote true but at least they would not be passing all these draconian laws taking all our rights away.
Of course, but they would never be elected. I would 100% vote for NDP if they had a glimmer of chance, they did so bad their party almost disappeared.
It was a vote against the conservatives, who would cause direct harm to our independence and marginalized communities.
What we have here is a different kind of evil. Neither evils are acceptable, but it is a quantifiably lesser evil. We, as the people, have to twist their arms to make them do our bidding.
That’s just stupid. If everybody simply thinks that, of course it’ll never happen. We have to change this mentality.
Also, I honestly think a minority conservative government with a strong NDP with whom the Liberals would’ve had to work with would’ve been a better outcome than this.
We need to get rid of FPTP, which the liberals promised to do years ago.
The NDP might get rid of FPTP, but we were not guaranteed a strong NDP this election, so we may have simply ended up with a CON / LIB government had we voted for NDP in greater numbers.
We should chat about this over Matrix if you’re willing :) I think both viewpoints are valid, it’s really just a question of risk to reward.
Um…I hate to be the person to tell you, on the last paragraph…so I mean the last four years…the Liberals and NDP…yeah. And that didn’t go so hot.
NDP is an absolute train wreck, and has been for quite some time save for some really tiny glimmers of hope here and there. As much as I dislike the current landscape, and as much as I don’t feel represented, I’m quite sure the NDP wasn’t the answer either.
That is how I voted hoping liberals might be less evil. I just wonder now if there is any differences between these 2 evils anymore.
You had a choice between Shit and Shit Light. Giant douche and a Turd Sandwich.
I mean it beats the alternative down south. Not sure those folks are going to really have an opportunity to have a choice anymore, the way events are unfolding.
