Myself and Mr Tighclops Esq have stumbled upon how to solve the issue of parties that no-one wants to vote for The party suggested on the screen is the best idea for Ontario politics Of course, by best, I mean, still better than Hudak and Horwath.

You know how we kept talking about the NDP not actually taking a look at why they lost the election, and instead blaming everyone else? Horwath has basically confirmed that.quote:Horwath appeared to blame some her party's lacklustre showing on "strategic voting," hinting that many left-leaning Ontarians opted to vote Liberal to block PC Leader Tim Hudak from winning seats. Hudak, whose party lost 10 seats in the election, ran on a campaign with promises to make deep public service cuts. She also called the budget a regressive "Trojan horse" rather than the progressive budget everyone's talking about. Hmmmm, maaaaybe just maybe if she believed that she should have campaigned on that rather than the corruption thing, and made it clear how she was more progressive than this apparently-regressive OLP budget, once it was clear that her approach wasn't getting traction?

"Let's blame the voters for not voting for us" yes surely this is a productive line of thought that will serve the NDP well in the future.

Yeah, except for the part where her party lost any pretense of power in the legislature. Or where they lost three of five seats in their core area of support in exchange for some historically fickle suburban and rural ridings. Other than that, it went great.

Or have more recent criticisms come out since Matthews was in charge?

infernal machines posted:What type of poo poo is the NDP in this metaphor? Underdogshit. The kind that almost floats but ends up dragging along the bottom of the bowl. Then, after being mildly agitated, a pocket of air escapes it's folds, causing it to sink entirely to the bottom; as the bubble escapes the shallow porcelain pool and breaks against, you think you almost hear a faint whisper. But it's just a buzz from the fly escaping it's watery doom.

She gained exactly zero seats, lost two Toronto strongholds, and lost all bargaining power for the next four budgets. All when she was the first one to know the election was coming. How did that go well?

Donationchat: I gave $400 to my local NDP candidate because there was no Communist Party of Canada (Marxist-Leninist) candidates in my riding. The CPC(ML) didn't run provincially and essentially endorsed the NDP anyway. I'm thinking of giving around $750 to the Marxist-Leninists in the 2015 federal election if I have enough money. Just trying to do my part.

I just want to buy some signs for someone who wants to substitute parliamentary democracy with something more like Cuba or North Korea. The homeless person could use the money a lot more than the political sign manufacturing corporation. Cuba and North Korea don't exist because of voting.

If you're making a troll account you might want to hold your fire a bit longer before saying you want Canada to be more like North Korea. A bit more foreplay is needed before you jump to full LF mode.

I only mentioned those two countries because those are the ones that the CPC(ML) supports. Most revolutionary countries in the 20th Century had similar political systems. China, for example, still has a people's democracy. Edit: Let's not derail things away from Ontario though I guess. harper is bisexual fucked around with this message at 03:05 on Jun 27, 2014 |

What, are you suggesting that a combination of Horwath's pocketbook populism and "clean trains, clean trains, CLEAN TRAINS!!!!!" repeated ad nauseam wasn't good enough for Davenport?

I would have voted for him if he had been part of that letter sent to Horwath by those NDP MPPs who didn't agree with her campaign policies or rhetoric, but he didn't. It was a pretty contested riding though -- he only won the first time by 1000 votes so I think it was always going to be pretty fierce competition. But you're right, if the NDP had a better platform he would have probably won.
