Nope, he played on the fearmongering of a PP government. We need more regional parties to break the 2-party grip on Canadians.

And exactly how do you get that in the current system we have without reform? I'm not saying he's good I'm saying that if we try to keep doing this same song and dance without reform, we're fools.

Ok but how do you get there? Voting con never gets you closer to that.

[–] Sunshine@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

How is voting con breaking the 2-party grip? That is enabling the system.

Like an Alberta separatist party? Seriously?

Yukon started their own party and decimated both the liberals and conservatives in the territorial/provincial election.

Goes to show that it is possible.

That's just what their conservative party is called - they literally used to be the PCs. Same story with the Saskatchewan party.

He fearmongered far more on the 'threat' of Trump. That was the main point of his campaign and people actually believed that the US might invade Canada during the campaign. Its amazing what people will fall for - totally ignoring the fact that Trump is blustering loudmouth who will say anything as long as it gets him attention.

It's both, really. Trump and PP.
