The reason for that is the behaviour of the state of Israel and has nothing to do with being Jewish or not.

The US may overshoot when attempting to invade Canada.

The Socialist party already exists?

Only with the extreme Overton shift in the US. Democrats may be more progressive than Republicans, but that’s really not saying much. Most actual Democrat policy is right of center, to the frustration of representatives like Sanders and AOC.

The sad part for me is, my riding elected a Conservative, and in general he’s a pretty good guy. He’s old school conservative, and does a good job representing his constituency in parliament.

But the party he’s stuck with is not the party it was when Mulroney was PM; people in leadership positions are actively pushing fascist and populist ideology, and feeling it’s fine to actively deceive the Canadian public to gain more power.

That’s not something I can respect. Old school conservatism I often disagreed with, but at least I could respect those who stuck with the party line out of a sense of integrity. I could have good-faith discussions with them about the best way to govern. How do you do that with someone who is only telling you what they think you want to hear, all the while having totally different behaviour where it counts?

It’s time for the US to form a centrist party, instead of people having to choose between far right, right, and far left.

Essentially, Conservatives were seeing what topics were hot with that crowd, and campaigning on them… all while having no workable plan to actually address the issues they were railing on the Liberals for doing so poorly with.

So anyone experienced with politics saw it as a smokescreen, but the younger crowd fell for it because it resonated and they could see the actual harm that had been done to them by the Liberals.

To this group I say:

Don’t fall for fascism; it doesn’t work. Why not give the NDP a try? They have actual, workable solutions to the problems you face.

Thing is, I’ve talked to a number of Albertans — they all voted Conservative, and they all despise what the Conservative leadership has become.

But they despise the Liberals even more, and see them as being actively harmful to Albertan prosperity, instead of just the fascists they know.

They’re all voting anti-Liberal, not pro-Conservative.

Makes me think they all need to switch to NDP.

Florida bans fluoride, eh? Florida… man.

…and the Green Party took a single seat.

He’s decisively losing his riding with only 52 polls remaining.

Look everyone! I’m moving to shoot you in the feet less often!

“Don’t give our relationship away until AFTER I’m elected and it’s too late!”

At least it’s still a thing. Canada should definitely push WFH legislation that incentivizes businesses to go that direction when it’s an option though.

I’ve been on it since the polls began to close and haven’t seen any issues?

In BC, the provincial government is pushing both, quite strongly.

There was an organized protest campaign run where a whole bunch of people ran in PP’s riding to bring visibility to the mishandling of electoral reform in Canada, specifically around ranked choice voting and proportional representation. Liberals ran on it in 2010 and then failed to do anything other than make a mess of moving away from first past the post .

I would find it amusing if the “Independent party” ended up taking Carleton (ie: more voters voted independent than PP).

[edit] Woohoo! Looks like Carleton is likely going to (LPC) Bruce Fanjoy despite the plethora of independents. PP loses his seat!

He’ll probably just replace a CPC somewhere else, but I’d love to see this as a signal that conservative Canadians don’t want populism or fascism.
