They're not actually doing much reforming. It's steps in the right direction but nobody is touching fptp

I was going to say that, I had no idea! What a disaster

How does it compare to water running through plastic pex pipes in your house?

But they want us to switch to electric vehicles and electric everything. Seems counterintuitive. Shouldn't they just charge the coal and natural gas plants directly so that cleaner forms of electricity are more financially incentivized?

You're going to heat your house one way or another in the country, this gives you multiple options that all result in carbon tax. I thought the whole point of the carbon tax was supposed to be to incentivize the cleanest option? Otherwise it's just another tax on the middle class with the only outcome being less money in people's pockets and generating more money for the government

Why would they charge carbon tax on electric heat?

We're also crawling with ticks these days. Can't take my kids to the neighbourhood park without having to do a thorough check every time

Every time before new shots come out I get covid, it's like clockwork. They're really behind on the vaccine rollouts it seems

Austerity is still coming when the Cons get in next election cycle

They wouldn't have done any of those programs if they didn't need NDP support to govern. National daycare and dental programs are both NDP ideas that they've been pushing forever

The NDP are certainly not bold enough or left enough for my liking but to say they're not left wing at all is disingenuous

Stargate not stormgate...

I've got a kid in daycare so we've been sick since August non stop. Covid was in the mix about a month ago, but it was just one among many illnesses
