  • As a quebecer, because he’s a demagogue populist asshole and an awful administrator who’s currently stuck in a couple of mismanagement scandals. Plus he keeps fucking up Montreal with each new budget and I’m not even gonna start on the religious laws…

    He only managed to get elected because the local liberals were in shambles and the Parti Quebecois has lost itself and its appeal when QS came in. He is a symbol of the aging voter base and at least he’s stable in his bullshit I guess…

    Thing is, he’s not an idiot and has been skirting the line of acceptability for the longest time but now it seems the karmic balance is finally bringing back the shit he threw back at him






  • DON’T LET PERFECT BE THE ENEMY OF GOOD

    Vote red but keep the pressure on them, talk to your representatives and make your voices heard, because you know that the CPC won’t care what you say, they never did.

    First step is we elect a Liberal Government. Second step is we continue the fight and put pressure on them for proportional representation, de-americanizing our cloud infrastructures, gaining our independence and making our country stronger in the face of the world’s instability.

    We need to build, we need to make alliances, we need someone that has strong negotiation skills.

    Plus, as others have said, if you don’t have to vote Liberal because you’re in a place where the Conservatives have no chance, it’s ok to vote with your heart/morals etc.





  • It’s basically the same system as England, it’s based on it so yeah.

    We elect a party to power, then that party appoints ministers from the elected people and normally the appointed Prime Minister is the leader of the winning party.

    In this case, the last PM stepped down and in doing so, the House of Commons was “put on hold” while the party elected a new leader. The Governor of Canada then appointed that new leader as PM so he can assure the transition but he needed to trigger election before the House of Commons work resumed which was today.

    So now we get a snap election of 36 days to appoint our new government but in the meantime, Marc Carney is the acting Prime Minister.
