Liberal team was dropping "Liberals poll at 38% in Ottawa" flyers last weekend in Kanata-Carleton. She finished distant third... But the Lib votes would have been sufficient for an NDP win. gently caress liberals. Also Green "we have the best environmental platform because there's Green in the name" Party. At least I take solace because I volunteered in Ottawa-Centre as well

Kale posted:I can just foresee him going down in some really dumb scandal within his first term. Ontario wont stand for the level of bullshit that the U.S does it he just goes full Trump dumb as they were to elect him in the first place. Any overtly racist bullshit and daily Twitter bluster and cynical as people here love to be I just dont see it I assure you he will survive. Rob Ford arguably was one of the most gaffe and scandal prone politicans to ever grace the city, and a lot of people will swear up and down that he did a lot of good for the city and was misunderstood. Facts don't matter.

So the libs are about to lose two seats to the NDP? Yay. Also the final numbers remind me a lot of the 2011 federals in a way that's uncanny.

I don't think this is very much like the 2011 election. Like yeah I get the liberals collapsing, but 2011 it was the result of a spectacular self-own with Ignatieff. This year they just kind of decayed, the NDP capitalized a bit (free dental bay bay), and the conservatives managed to bleed out just a teensy bit slower than they had the past two elections (with some help from the OLP). imo the key for the NDP now is to be very active with positive proposals, and making themselves significant in the ridings they won. Don't let people forget about dental coverage. don't make the mistake of 2011 and just assume that you'll become the not-tory default and attrition into power

You can't subvert a thriving black market by limiting people's choices further. I think enough people would've been fine with the convenience of getting weed legally from a store that it'd have been a massive revenue gain for the government.
