    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).

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

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

            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.

            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.

                      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.

                        Ndp had no chance.

                        And I’d rather have a traditional right wing party leader and centre party over an alt right lunatic.

                        Ndp needs to fix its shit for the next cycle.

                            Recall that Jagmeet “Singh” was actually from the upper crust of Indian social structure. His actual family name is Dhaliwal.

                            He was never on our side.

                            That’s a weird take. Family name and upbringing aside, he was the most “on our side” politician available at the time. I think his main fault was simply that he wasn’t very likeable.

                              Hes a rich fuck who used the NDP to further his own things. Hes as much on our side as Taylor Swift or any of the Trumps.

                              He didnt do jack shit for Vancouver after he was parachuted into one of the safest NDP strongholds in the country and it is directly on head for losing it.

                                Equating Jagmeet to both Taylor Swift and the Trumps? I’m not sure I’m following you point, unless your point is simply “rich people bad”.

                                Did you have a better candidate to cast your vote to?

                                      All I want to say is: there’s a lot more of us, than there are of them.

                                      We have the power. We just all need to agree on a course of action… It’s that last part that I think will prove to be difficult… The first bits of getting people to recognise that together we, in fact, hold the power… That won’t be easy either, but it will be a cakewalk compared to getting everyone to agree on how to proceed and have everyone take action when required.

                                      Herding cats comes to mind.
