    I grew up in Saskatchewan during a time when almost everyone automatically voted NDP … much of that because of Tommy Douglas’ and the CCF/NDP legacy.

    For years now I’ve mostly voted strategically, except for the rare times I’ve voted my choice. But this utter betrayal by the Liberals has burned that bridge.

    It’s NDP every time from now on.

    Do you know why the CCF fell out of favour? Tommy Douglas had a really long tenure so he must have done well. What did him in? If you know. 😊

      This is probably much harder than I’m making it sound, but y’all should be giving the Liberals hell for this shit. The road to fascism is paved with liberal betrayal of the working class.

      We had to vote for the neoliberals so that the ultraconservatives did not get elected. We are not in a good place 😭

        At this point, the Liberals have bowed to Trump (and got nothing for it), made largely symbolic genstures to limit immigrantion blocking primary those who are paying to be here while ignoring the workers we effectively enslave with the TFW program, done nothing about housing, and has blocked unions. At this point, might have well voted for Polieve (or, you know, someone sane).

            I have to think that if they keep doing this every time there’s a major strike coming, the courts are going to rule against the current labour relations laws entirely. The right to strike is in the Charter.

                No, he was going to stop funding it entirely. Shutting it down has been his life’s quest. He also has an actual affinity for Trump rather than just a strategic interest in not making him angry.

                        Yeah! It’s all the liberals fault!

                        We get liberals in office and… Why are you not doing enough?

                        And when they’re not in office, why aren’t you doing anything?!

                        The two party system is just sandwiching we, the people, between two rotting pieces of shit soaked bread. No matter who “wins” the election, we, the people, always fucking lose. That’s the way of things. The government doesn’t represent you and I, they’re there to make the lives of businesses easier. So we’re going to get roflstomped either way.

                        I will say that one party seems to stink a whole lot less than the other.

                          We probably won’t get a more moderate choice anytime soon. As long as strategic voting and first past the post are the norm.

                                Conductors at CN and CP are waiting for the Supreme Court to rule on exactly this point. It’s been over a year now with a four-year contract that has expired over a year ago. Carney is not labour friendly.

                                    The right to collectively bargain and strike was fought with blood. Allowing unions was the better alternative to blood. Now they seem to be forgetting that.

                                        That’s why we were saying pre-election, vote for a strong NDP to reign in the Liberals. And a bunch of Carney shills were throwing tantrums.

                                          Honestly because of his leadership, my future votes will be going towards NDP or Greens. The Liberals have lost my vote forever. I voted Liberal to avoid a Conservative government and I feel like I ended up with one anyways.

                                          I voted Liberal to avoid a Conservative government

                                          In my riding (historically strong NDP) that kind of thinking got a conservative MP elected. I’m sure similar situations played out across the country.
