45% is a majority with no oversight, no opposition.

Good job on that election reform.

Come on Canada - we can't be worse than fucking America.

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 13 points 9 months ago

I mean, our national identity is pretty much just America but slightly better, and the USA is setting a really, really low bar right now

We have been worse than America for years. You might be bankrupt by healthcare in the US but you'll at least get it.

America's housing crisis isn't as bad as Canada and their wages are better for highly skilled or highly educated workers. It is common for someone to get a decent education in Canada then go work in America and pray they don't need any serious healthcare.

The conservatives can take their expensive party donors and go fuck themselves

Trudeau has to go. Jagmeet also. (Before the federal election)

[–] fourish@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago (2 children)

At least Jagmeet is better than petulant petey (a low bar to be sure).

Being not the worst is a pretty dogshit way to run a country, and yet it has been that way for decades.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago

Oh no comparison, but many of the people who vote for PP wouldn't vote for Jagmeet or whoever replaces him.
