When will the liberal party pass the electoral reform they were elected to pass?

They will with enough pressure. This negative attitude is useless.

And that pressure comes from the citizens who never put pressure on. I live in a fascist government situation in Canada simply because I am disabled. But people like you would tell me to stop complaining that at least I have some support. I have chased my MP to no effect or response at all. I have done the same with my MLA. I have educated my fellow Canadians. I have ranted and raved for decades and protested about how we are treated as second class citizens and you all are not standing up for us. None of you. I’m purple in the face from screaming into the void.

You expect people to stand up for you? You’re delusional. My experiences at the bottom of Canadian society tell me otherwise.

Pressure as it “voting for other people” and “nationwide general strike” or pressure as in “Thoughts and prayers” online?

Because the first isn’t going to happen, as evident by this election, and the second hasn’t achieved anything so far, and will continue to achive nothing because it isn’t actually pressure.

Ahh, here’s the tankie…

You’re responsible for Donald Trump getting elected because you just focused on attacking democrats relentlessly then foolishly claimed that voting is “pointless”

Get out of here with your authoritarian tendencies.

Its a stretch but I’m hoping with a liberal minority there is chance the NDP could advocate for electoral reform as negotiation point. Its a stretch but I feel like its the only way it could happen.
