But I can agree that in politics are few people with enough charisma to lead. She is one of them.

Notley political quadrant is vidtually idebtical to Carney... She ditched progressive agenda in hunt of power

Carney already axed Labour minister position... I think the message is clear. Unions should prop some other party that actually cares for unions. NDP is one of them.

Same Liberals that every single time, given the opportunity to support unions, moved against them? BAD move.

I may dislike both, maybe even a lot. But the fact that in Canadian politics there's still room for dialogue between representatives of two parties that are perceived as opposed to each othe gives me a glimmer of hope for us.

Danielle very much is behind it.

lookup CUSMA visa.. Equivalent of TN for Canadians. If your profession falls into covered category all you need a job offer at the border. You could come over on tourist visa, scout for work, get offer, go back to the border, stamp visa in and enjoy Canada

men-children at work: I'll slapnyou with bagilion-gazillion taxes on random stuff! Humanity has degraded to preschooler politics.

he did say that Canada would be annexed with no representation... so no worries about left shift... also think that whatever party would be in power that surrenders to POTUS47 would immediately become local unelectable pariah, considering polls currently it'd be Libs. So the pressure is rather to push for Cons... what they can't comprehend is that Canada is not US and it creates some serious pusback

[–] droopy4096@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Liberals were always representing business and investment communities in much the same way Cons do, the only difference is their posturing on social issues. We only have toothless NDP to represent people... this electoral system sucks and sucks big time. we need more parties, more voices and we cannot have party representing 30% of population pretend like "it's got mandate" and it's "majority". Voting should be mandatory and number of seats should represent percentage of population represented. Spoiled ballots should be represented with empty seats and "majority" rules should be the absolute majority. If no absolute majority available for decision it's to be put to plebiscite. That may get us some semblance of Democracy in it's true sense.

NDP should really go back to Social Democratic roots and double down on them. That is the only thing that can differentiate them from Libs and Cons. Present arrangement granted NDP great leverage, being in minority they were able to push through a lot of great items. Can't hope for this now. They Have To stand out.
