As a shocking move (not) the liberal government side with AirCanada patrons and forced the flight attendants union to go in legal arbitration (right word ?)
If you liked spammed your social with photo of Patricia Hadjy and PM Carney with the #UnpaidWorkWontfly
Love & Rage
Recall that Jagmeet "Singh" was actually from the upper crust of Indian social structure. His actual family name is Dhaliwal.
He was never on our side.
That's a weird take. Family name and upbringing aside, he was the most "on our side" politician available at the time. I think his main fault was simply that he wasn't very likeable.
Hes a rich fuck who used the NDP to further his own things. Hes as much on our side as Taylor Swift or any of the Trumps.
He didnt do jack shit for Vancouver after he was parachuted into one of the safest NDP strongholds in the country and it is directly on head for losing it.
Equating Jagmeet to both Taylor Swift and the Trumps? I'm not sure I'm following you point, unless your point is simply "rich people bad".
Did you have a better candidate to cast your vote to?
It's hard to find a worse candidate than him for the riding.
Over the 7ish years he had the riding I can count on one hand the number of events he showed up to, never did candidate meetings, never raised any issues in the city in parliament. The last one being the literal baseline for being voted in.
Trudeau at least for Vancouver back the coast guard dock that Harper and Poilievre sold off to developers. Even though he then stabbed the city in the back with the oil pipelines to nowhere.
