Indeed, it's material to scare NDP/Green leaners into voting Liberal to stop the big bad scary Conservatives. Strategic voting is for chumps though!

Typically, when the overpopulation argument and solution combo is presented, the implication is that poor/brown populations should be reduced. I don't think I need to spell out why this is bad More than anything solutions will require drastic change in how we live and consume

I'd never vote for him, but if he comes out swinging that his views have changed and actually shows it, most people will forget about this "controversy". Hell, Obama and Hillary were both anti-gay marriage in 2005 too. A lot has changed. It used to be a kinda big deal to be supportive of it as a mainstream politician.

He was still on this type of canard in a backyard party in 2016 or so. When I spoke to him personally. He is still very anti gay marriage. He attempted to justify it through some Byzantine libertarian fashion, which in true libertarian fashion sounded pleasant for the brief few moments it hung in the air, then fell apart if you thought about it for a second.

There's nothing wrong with the NDP making the tactical decision that there is no point in even entertaining the notion of supporting the Conservatives after the next election, but if you're going to make that tactical calculus and then announce it publicly why not open up on the Conservatives with both barrels? How about we'd never consider supporting them because they have a bullshit climate plan that experts have assessed will raise emissions, there campaign manager founded Canada's premier white nationalist website, their association with Doug Ford and cheerleading same's unprecedented use of the Notwithsatanding Clause and their long history of opposing progressive action on the human rights of LGBTQ+, immigrants, women and Indigenous Canadians. Nah, Jagmeet rolled out of bed this morning and discovered Andrew Scheer is a secret homophobe.

BC Ed update: We're in mediation now. It won't go anywhere because the employer's hands are still tied by an inadequate funding envelope from the NDP. We've made almost zero progress since bargaining began and the NDP are still asking us to voluntarily give up what we got back through the SCC court win. It's increasingly looking like cowardice at the BCTF executive table. We keep being asked to 'put the pressure on' MLAs etc. but it's feeling more and more like they're keeping is distracted from the fact that they haven't done very much to turn up the heat themselves. I'm going to start poking around to see if there are enough malcontents out there to start agitating to topple the government (politically, RCMP).

Jan posted:Guillotines are a political instrument! There's no better alternative, at least for the BCTF. But it's also not clear to me that there's a worse alternative for the BCTF at the moment. We may as well be bargaining with the Liberals. I don't want to be insensitive to the other ways the NDP had been good for the province, but I'm also not busting my rear end as a union activist so that I can ultimately strike a Confucian pose about our position in the province.

Gatts posted:Huh...is Trump farming out immigrant hate to Canada? Canadian politics is often very similar to American politics with a 5-10 year delay. Right now we're having our 2012 election where a charismatic young leader has to win reelection after a resounding success four years ago but an unspectacular first term, facing off against an uninspiring random conservative white guy as his opponent, while in the wings the far-right shrieks about how every politician is a Muslim communist.
