Not surprised at all. They just want us to get angry and vote the current government out.

I hope people learned from Ontario but probably not.

This is what our “democracy” has morphed into … we are no longer told who to vote for … we are instead told who NOT to vote for.

All to ensure that we never actually talk to the person we do vote for. “Oh, yeah, the problems are totally a result of you chosing the wrong party and not because the person you elected isn’t a mind reader and was left to guess about what you wanted.”

I mean you can talk to the people you elect, it just doesn’t do anything. I talked to my MPP just the other day about if he would support back to work legislation for teachers, they’ve been working for over a year without a contract and all he would say about is “we’re trying to keep students in the classroom”. He never did give me a straight answer about it.

That’s just pruning the worse ideas until we have a clear last-loser.

We should not have people voting on a single issue (for the cons, it’s whether corporations and rich people should continue to skate on their tax obligation) but “people vs monoliths” is kinda it.

Learned to not elect the federal Progressive Conservatives? I think they learned that back in 2002. Remember, the party gave up after that?

If the Canadian conservative party is anything like the American conservative party then they don’t have a plan for…anything.

That is objectively not true. They have a plan to weaken the rights of the marginalized and to enrich themselves and their cronies. C’mon now >_>

They do have a plan.

It’s called “You’re wrong and I will vote against it 100% of the time.”

Dude was being sarcastic. He’s pointing out the rest of the shit they do is just a smokescreen for not having a platform.

“The Conservative Party has no real solutions for the affordability crisis”

… sure maybe, but do the Liberals? They’ve had a long time to fix things. Maybe it’s time we start electing someone other than the two parties that brought us here.

That’s crazy talk. The Two Parties Plus False Hope system has served Canada well for generations.

The Liberal solution is to maximize the return on investment for real estate speculators, thus transferring as much wealth as possible from the poor to the ruling class. That’s literally the whole reason the Canadian government was created by corporations and foreign rulers in the first place.

Conversely the CPC solution is the exact same thing, but favouring a different set of cronies.
