A lot of people might think otherwise but leaders can actually lead and not just go with whatever the crowds are shouting the loudest.

People ultimately want a better life not having someone fulfill random fantasy’s they were fed without understanding the repercussions of them.

As someone who voted for the Greens in the previous election I’m past it as far as her involvement goes.

But I will mention that type of approximate whataboutism from that era is the foundation for “hippy” to right wing wellness grift of today.

I’m not sure electoral reform would ever get passed if they merged although there’s still the Green’s.

A coalition would probably be best for Canadians the next 4 years, but the viability of NDP being attached at the hip to the Liberals another term would be a real campaigning issue.

As a progressive voter I do wonder about how the NDP will handle this. I also imagine the Bloc don’t want to dick around to much at the risk of what happened last time.

Why give anything up for a:

• Incompetent(his supposed big claim was the super majority that he turned into a Liberal Minority, really have nothing else to show for 20years in politics)
• Cunt(any video interaction with him)
• That really doesn’t seem to have any political future.

Pollievre should be done, but it is way to early for Rob Ford to give up his premier job so do wonder what they’ll do. I think they ideally have a place holder till 2028ish when the pre election politics start again.

Does anyone have a paywall bypass for this? None of the usuals seem to work.

People need to seperate what happened to quantify the win and losses of the actions.

The original bill was intended for news corporation to get a fair cut for their content. Even with just Google signing on for a 100 million was a significant success.

For accessibility to news. Having less access to news for people always a bad thing. Having little to no regulations for modern media has also been a huge failure for almost all governments globally.

I do want to point out the entire “for change” thing is clearly not for the better just that he’s not the incumbent.

This logic brought America Trump so I really don’t know why someone would even say it now.

For many years places like the Fraser Insistute would point to the USA larger economy and more competitive salaries as why Canada should be copying their policies.

As usual the progressive arguments needed context like higher proverty rates or underlying social issues which to people that can barely make it past a article title is a largely lost cause. But in 2025 we can pretty just point to the flaming turd that is America and unless people are a special flavor of nuts they just kinda nod.

decade of Liberal rule that postured progressive while delivering mostly for the wealthy.

People should understand like the Democrats the Liberals hand in setting up people like Trump & Pierre to even be an option.

As a 3rd party voter I hope Liberals win but if they deliver more of the same I don’t think people want to imagine what’s next.
