It is increasingly looking to me like there is some evidence of criminality here. I knew Doug and the Conservatives were stupid, but too stupid to cover their tracks properly? That's going to be great content. e: The RCMP have commented: quote:The RCMP is reviewing potential “irregularities” in Ontario’s Greenbelt development after the Ontario Provincial Police referred the matter to the national force citing potential conflict of interest.

Charles Bukowski posted:You don't abandon what you want just because it won't win. The libs want the status quo, the cons want this but worse for everyone. If you vote for either, you're voting for exactly what you say you don't want. With respect, what are your principles? Are you just being butt mad because powerlessness? I wouldn't abandon what I want just because it won't win. But I don't want what the NDP is offering any more than I want the Libs or Cons, so I'll probably just not vote this time around unless the NDP has a sudden moment of clarity and stops doing stupid poo poo.

The Ontario PCs probably expected everyone to shrug their shoulders and think “well we do need housing” and the controversy would blow over. Turns out messing with the greenbelt is really unpopular, even with a lot of conservatives. Rural conservatives who tried to get away from the cities aren’t real happy about the cities coming to them.

I think I said it before itt but the Conservative politicos I know, people who were part of the Harris and Harper governments, are pissed about this. They all think Doug really hosed 'the movement' by going after the Greenbelt, especially after promising repeatedly not to. It's commonly accepted (rightly or wrongly) that the 905 is where elections are won and lost in this country, and he hosed with the 905 in a big way.

I curious if any of those insiders took note of what happened in Haldimand Norfolk with the election of Bobi Anne Brady, it should have set off alarm bells. One of the safest Conservative ridings in the province elected an independent because a development they didn’t want was being forced on them.

Curious to all the NDP doomposters here, have you ever actually talked to/mailed your MP or local NDP/liberal candidate, or been involved with the going ons of the party conventions? Have you ever sent in a resolution to your local EDA to be considered? Or do you just like to gripe and moan about it and throw your hands up into the air about it?

I don't really blame them because those of us who have get met with apathy at best and resistance at worst. Next you post "well why don't you build your own movement inside the NDP" and we point out that the last time that happened and it looked like their chosen guy might actually lose they just threw democracy out the window. Next you post "well why don't you start your own party". We've been over this ground many times. Pattern recognition is a real bitch.

Was on the executive for my riding, 70% voter turnout in a riding where the UPC incumbent didn't run, still lost by 2500 votes (out of ~25k cast).

I know that feeling, it's really demoralizing. Still, good on you for doing what you did, keep up the great work. Hopefully a few years of this unfettered UCP clownshow will finally wake people up about the UCP. I'm already hearing genuine grumbling and regret from people I'm acquainted with who voted blue during the election. DynamicSloth posted:All of the above, that poo poo is incredibly stage managed from party HQ and a blackhole for grassroots action. This year's convention, being held in 2023 as it is, will of course have no option for remote participation. Yeah.. I am not impressed with that choice from them either. Where do you feel the true power lies in the party specifically? Like, where is the delineating line from the grassroots desires of the membership and these people at party HQ, and who are they and how did they get there? This is a side of the party that I've heard about from some lifers but nobody would talk openly about. I still don't think that means people should give up on it, rather it means we need to put more of a spotlight on these backroom dealings done in the dark. gently caress this country sucks though, the wasted opportunity's at every level of government and politics defies belief

No, the most Canadian thing would be to form a committee to hold a meeting about developing a process to select a candidate to replace eXXon. And then not replace eXXon. edit: Yeah, should have gone with the annexation option. Certainly better than this: ZShakespeare posted:Your pm to me showing me receipts of your monetary donations to Israel’s genocide are the last straw. You are no longer welcome in this thread as long as I am IK. tagesschau posted:I'm not required to let this heinous, bald-faced lie go unanswered, and not bound by anything that flows from it. The fact that you've apparently been sent into an apoplectic, spittle-flecked rage, hurling around false accusations of genocide, just because the wrong kind of people half a world away might be receiving medical supplies, tells me either that you're gullible as hell or that the mask has finally slipped. And all signs point to the latter. tagesschau fucked around with this message at 13:46 on Feb 17, 2024 |
