Horgan just doesn't have a very antagonistic personality as far as I can tell. The libs whole smear on him was "Angry John, there he goes again, you never know when he'll pop off next!" But he never actually gets visibly mad at all lol Bowinn Ma's tweets are p fire though

In every riding I ever lived the Liberals were always the competitive party and the NDP were a wasted vote. gently caress if the NDP implode does that mean FPTP is working as intended or do we need serious electoral reform to break the Liberal/Tory majority power.

I have extremely low expectations, but he's been good so far considering the political climate as of right now.

"The NDP isn't an iteration of my erotic communist fanfiction so I vote Liberal." Notable for great and effective cabinet ministers such as Maryam Monsef, Bill Morneau, Catherine McKenna, Seamus O'Regan, Bill Blair, Melanie Joly, Diane Lebouthillier, Judy Foote, Marc Garneau... I mean, aside for Freeland, Philpott, and Petitpas-Taylor, who has been remarkable so far? I'm in total agreement that NDP leadership is socialism averse, but to say that they don't have any good candidates based on their relative lack of career opportunities is apathetic bullshit.

Jesus gently caress, there's a Minister of Red Tape Reduction... https://www.alberta.ca/grant-hunter-bio.aspx?fbclid=IwAR31dY4jId2a7i1FdEi9TNxrQ7yj60xpMqkBibRXzDSithLZuT86YF0bV0s "Relying on his own experience as an entrepreneur, Hunter will target unnecessary and burdensome over-regulation that currently weighing job-creators down, while empowering entrepreneurs, and business owners to invest in Alberta and create jobs in this province." Well, we all know what that means: bypass, remove, or otherwise get rid of any of those pesky regulations when it comes to business. Things will run much better in the trailer park!

She says a lot cool things about the environment but is silent when it comes to pipelines. Her government is still subsidizing oil and gas... And her department cannot be bothered to provide accurate figures. So no. e: the Paris targets are nowhere near sufficient to mitigate severe warming. Also she didn't name her dog Paris so clearly she doesn't care.

We need to build a more caring, compassionate, loving society. Being angry that it isn’t, and angry at those who perpetuate our current conditions, is not contradictory. Even Son of God and being of pure love Mr. Jesus Christ (who is an obvious influence on that sort of rhetoric) got angry at a-holes doing a-hole things.

A few clicks into my one social media account brought me to the realization that there is an entire network of rich, muscley, coked out young gay men in Vancouver that are actively involved with the Conservative party of Canada (and BC Liberals) and it's broken my brain a little.

That is some pro tier concern trolling. In other news I’m seeing a lot of “Do you want a government that can’t hide bribes properly?” type posts and memes from the usual Ontario Proud types. Like they’re basically saying that at Scheer will keep all the stuff out of the press which is good.

Weirdly, I'm almost inclined to agree, in as much as the Liberal government is going to be corrupt, couldn't they at least be competent about it? Mind you it's not that the Cons were better at being corrupt, Harper just ruled his cabinet absolutely, so there weren't any internal leaks or justice ministers going to the press about things.

Reality Winter posted:Love owns actually and it would own even more if all the haters were gone I'm angry because I love my planet and I love people and a bunch of loving rear end in a top hat are ruining these things. You'd better believe if I were running for office I'd give super angry speeches, but they would come from a place of love and, ironically, a desire to conserve what we have rather than destroy it all for corporate profits.

Back from a little break with plenty more garbage from the Quebec meme scene. Not a meme; Journal de Montreal idiot tries to slander Manon Massé’s volunteering for the flood response and implies strange “Ontarien” sikhs and muslims are coming to help.  Flood response: An army of douchebags shows up to help save the Pointe-Calumet Beachclub  Radio-Canada decides to spend all their arts funding on daring new content before the Conservatives are elected and cut any remaining funding.  A university of Laval TA tries to become the next Lindsay Shepherd, but kinda blows the “get fired stanning for the right wing’s principles”  (In response to a boomer magazine article trash talking leggings and yoga pants as fashion: “I love women in leggings; you see the pussy crack and the rear end crack ;-p”) Wave of disappointment: “Douchebag army disappears prematurely “because there wasn’t any DJ or chicks””
