What was the alternative? I would have loved to vote NDP, and usually do in local elections, but they stood no chance. I wasn't so much voting for Carney as against Poilievre.
Withhold your volunteering and donating to the liberals since they already get so much money from the rich consistently. They will always put their interests before everyday canadians.
Strategically vote if you have to and redirect your efforts to the independents, fairvote and smaller parties.
Who says I donate and volunteer??? I have never done that for any political party.
I think that is the point. The establishment can force a person in when the other is straight up evil.
Even a minority conservative government with a strong NDP would have been better than a minority neo-liberal (read fiscal conservative) and conservative (read morally conservative) government with no one to stop them.
The liberals are so conservative under Carney that conservatives are jumping to his party ffs.
Surely you jest… not only your "better" alternative is entirely hypothetical, and impossible for the electorate to target… but giving power to the maple magas would be suicide and never ever conductive to compromise of any kind
Just look south and you can see the playbook the cons here would apply (they have adopted it all). PP would starve the most vulnerable Canadians to force a vote on making it illegal to say the word "trans"
Carney is a heartless bastard and we do need to fight this budget but to pretend flirting with maple maga is a better alternative is laughable
I think we're misunderstanding each other here.
