Deus Vult has indeed been co-opted by white supremacists along with a lot of crusader/christian symbolism.

Yes, the slur "Coon" definitely exists up there. Very likely imported from american media/influence.

It holds the same place in Canadian vernacular as a hateful slur in many places. Though you will also get a lot of unknowing folks who just call raccoons "Coons" still.

Sacrificing your life, your innocence and morality in order to secure your lands from imperialist threats that would see millions of your people wiped out or oppressed?

is it not selfless to damn yourself to whatever form of oblivion awaits you so that the next generations might not have to?

I always find this quiz is a nice start to see what platforms you may agree or disagree with. I'd like to start my reading now as well. I always find the actual runup to elections are so full of BS from everywhere.

I much prefer to choose based on past promises and actions rather than future best wishes.

Thank you for the info. I look forward to researching this all when I'm free from work.

Interesting stuff!

Do you have any more details or links on the wealth tax as well as the plans for UBI?

It feels like these things have been mentioned as parts of campaigns or proposals but I haven't actually seen any full plans put forward. Probably the fault of media reporting tbh. I'd love to know more.

You seem very angry about this.

I don't know anything about the current NDP and was curious to hear some things they've done that would have earned my vote. I'm aware of the federal dental plan but haven't seen or heard of the effects of that.

What other things are they running on or have they done to make them interesting to you?

Can you provide me some reasons to like him?

Seems all I hear about is a weak party, pandering to the Liberals and not much else leading to lasting change.

EDIT: To anyone downvoting... I'm not being malicious. I'm trying to learn and I think it's best to learn from people who already have the knowledge for me to draw from. I'm not up to date on current NDP platforms as they seem fairly under represented in our political reporting.
