by the left since they’ve taken power
When and where did they take power? Because they’ve never made government nationally in Canada, and provincially there hasn’t been a leftist government since the NDP functionally abandoned democratic socialism in the 90s.
Layton really moved on the party on that front. Which was gd depressing to watch. 😕
This is the most stereotypically leftist thing I’ve ever heard. Layton had a real chance to become the best PM we’ve ever had, but people STILL attack him from the left. Much easier to purity test anyone out of contention and complain from the sidelines!
I grew up in Saskatchewan in the 60’s-70’s where the NDP was born. My grandfather ran for the CCF and I’ve watched the NDP move to a centre-left mandate that reminds me how much we’ve lost.
But do go on telling me how I don’t know anything.
