Trudeau's electoral reform boondoggle has forever soured the Liberal party for me. Not to imply that they were particularly good prior to that but you know, poo poo sandwich, douche bag.

I’ve already talked to my local liberal candidate about my gripe with not following through with PR at my doorstep. Bungle of the 2015 term indeed given the rise in right wing populism

i think the conservative want to spend a majority term or two finishing what harper started before they will start attacking anything super-divisive like abortion or re-criminalizing pot

I'm gonna start a new party called the "Eat the Rich Party" and my platform will consist entirely of spite and hatred at the fuckers who've been ruining our lives.

There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels ... upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop!

The really poo poo part is that as usual there are 3+ left leaning parties and a single conservative one. With the electoral system the way it is it's super discouraging to even bother voting in a province like Manitoba because by the time we cast our ballots everything is pretty much decided.

I'm speaking strictly in theoretical terms. It's actually pretty dire for anyone who wants to vote left without choosing a party that will obviously never come to power. Has there ever been an actual leftist party in Canada? I don't remember a single actual good social policy coming from the Liberals as long as I can remember.

vyelkin posted:hard disagree even with a federal majority their hands would be tied on a lot of stuff unless they decided the wanted open the charter. i can definitely see scheer continuing the harper path though and probably doing the following - privatizing/dissolving canada post and purolator - cut cbc news completely and just focus on tv shows and whatever entertainment cancon bullshit - raise election fund raising limits - limit provincial transfer raises or just flatline them completely keep attacking institutions they hate and keep downloading more responsibilities to provinces, that way they can cut access to things like ford is doing instead of doing it visibility and crosscountry as a federal government
