It's almost like young Canadians are tired of seeing useless policies that don't benefit them be passed into law time and time again by the Liberal government. Good riddance Trudeau.
There is no political situation so bad it cannot be made worse by voting in elitist scumbags whose entire platform is 'screw you hair guy'
That kind of thinking is what got Trump elected and look at the wonders that did for the USA.
"Liberalism isnt working fast enough, lets try fascism" was a bad strategy
I mean, you're not wrong. You're actually eerily accurate.
People look to systems like fascism when liberalism succumbs to the political version of enshittification, more concerned with short-term political calculus, not offending anyone and ensuring donor cash continues to flow--all at the expense of the welfare of society.
Don't want angry Nazis? Don't make people feel like they have no hope, because some demagogue will come around peddling false hope and rage-farming instead.
What this fails to account for is that the party of nazis and demagogues is heavily responsible for that hopelessness. They somehow manage to successfully pass the blame to the other party who at least are trying to relieve that a little bit, around the margins. This is a case of perfection being the enemy of good, and it is stupid and self destructive in the extreme.
It'll be much better when all those useless policies get passed by the guy in the blue tie.
I'd rather both groups kick the bucket, but at this point we might see what the other group does.
Yes! NDP all the way!
To be fair, it's not just young people. Even as a centre left vote I'm voting ABL next time, rewarding their lack of action on so many issues just isn't an option.
What is ABL?
Anyone but Liberal. Can't stand the Cons, esp PP, but no way can I vote team red.
So long as you don't drop ABC, I can work with that.
We can't regress.
