Apparently I got that internship. I guess my adorable french-canadian pratfall (that hurt for real, my foot, goddamn) got me the job. Edit: Well that's an awkward page snipe.

What? You mean Liz, who was a loving mechanic and driver during WW2? Her uncle (Edward) may have been a Nazi sympathizer but he also gave up his crown for a married socialite so there's no accounting for taste.

greens practice a fresh new progressive style of politics where they assume that everything Weaver does is fine and unsuspicious because he's a very smart progressive green guy if Weaver does apparently unprogressive things, rest assured it's for very progressive Reasons based on Evidence and Science the details of which are never revealed to the viewer (because Reasons, Evidence etc)

THC posted:Weaver is the personification of everything that is wrong with green politics Is he worse than Notley? quote:Speaking to reporters on Tuesday in Edmonton, Notley said [Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain pipeline expansion] means tens of thousands of new jobs for people across the country, not just in Alberta. She said opponents in B.C. can dislike the project — but they can’t stop it. Don't worry if you dislike it, Notley says that is a-ok.

She never ran as a green. But while she does run an environment destroying government, she has also passed a lot of pro-worker and poor-helping legislation you'd never see from the PCs. If Weaver backs the BCLP we'll get the environment destroying government and anti-worker policies

JawKnee posted:are you saying green voters would not have voted Liberal? Based on what? Well the media seems to be saying that the greens siphoned off more of the liberal vote than the NDP vote and I'm willing to bet a lot of them wouldn't even have shown up to the polls if there hadn't been a green candidate. But listening to the idiot(s) in here you'd think that the greens are the reason that the NDP didn't win rather than just a distant third, not even official yet, party. That it should be blamed for the loss rather than spending even a moment on self reflection about what makes the NDP a wholly unlikeable party for the people of BC.

As if this situation wasn't hilarious enough already, a new post-election poll from Mainstreet suggests most British Columbians are against a coalition, and want the NDP to form government. In fact, 27% of BC Liberals want the NDP to form government!  Regardless of what happens, this is very bad news for Christy Clark. 47% of Greens want the same, so if Weaver doesn't ratfuck Christy it could end up hurting him very badly in the long run

Are you seriously claiming that this thread doesn't criticize the BCNDP? Do you even read this thread? I know BC chat usually gets derailed by whatever dumb thing the PM or premier of Ontario is doing pretty quickly, or tends to stick to housing, but I assure you nobody (even THC... probably) has forgotten that the BCNDP sucks. This does not mean that the Greens aren't being lead by a thin-skinned jerk who's happy to use environmental issues as a fig leaf for a conservative government. I have seen at least one Postmedia column speculate about the Greens peeling off Liberal voters pre-election, but nothing I've seen since has indicated that actually happened, although I had to stop reading after a point for my own sanity. If you've seen otherwise I'd like to see it.

Are you denying that there's an obscene amount of NDP cheerleading in here? Maybe we are reading different threads. Said cheerleading has nothing to do with Andrew Weaver who, yeah, is a jerk and probably completely personally unlikeable. But I see nothing in this thread or the media or especially his party's platform to indicate that he, or his party, are actually conservatives in disguise aside from some conspiracy theory from said NDP cheerleaders who are butthurt that the only decent choice for progressive politics in the province hosed up and lost again while the other branches of their party is disintegrating across the country. The post you quoted itself quoted another guy asking me to show that the greens actually damaged the NDP more than the liberals and you asking me to show that the greens damaged the liberals more than the NDP, so you two can fight it out.

BCNDP outperformed the polls and my own expectations, broke through in several ridings that were once understood to be BCLP strongholds and got more than double the votes of the Greens. Some ppl just have a sort of brain disease where they look at these facts and decide we're "wholly unlikeable" and Weaver is a positive campaigner and Horgan is angry and mean.
