    LPC won because most people wanted to keep whiney christian-nationalist bigots out of the office. Not because we wanted to see federal government destroy any and all workers’ rights. Not to see more power and free money handed to billionaires and corporations.

    Carney won’t be able to use anti-american scare tactics to get his way forever. It’s great that Pierre PP is not our Prime Minister, but WTF is LPC doing? Do they want to see maple-MAGA win the next election?

      Yes of course they do. It’s important (to them) that we alternate exclusively between right-wingers in red and right-wingers in blue. If they allow socialists into power even once, the Overton window will be dragged to the left and their owners can’t allow that.

        Socialists/Leftists/NDP/Greens in this country don’t care about the workers either. They live in their own silly ideological bubble, detached from the ground realities of the working poor.

      No, and that’s why the NDP shouldn’t have elected Avi Lewis. Between the two of them, I vote Carney. Now, replace him with Stiles and we talk.

        Couldn’t agree more. I hope Ontario stops crying about Bob Rae and give that lady a shot at governing.

          She’s got a better shot provincially than federally, which sucks because we need her federally. People keep mocking Pierre for losing his riding but Avi can’t even win one.
