I'm generally an NDP voter and have been most of my adult life but I had to vote Liberal in the last Federal Election because the threat of Trump winning a few months earlier and having Poilievre as our PM with the absolute clown show south of us is a risk I was unwilling to take.

I'd love nothing more than to vote NDP federally. But if you think things suck now, imagine Lib/NDP voters split and PP is our PM. He'd totally lean into the 51st state shit.

Yes, I understand I'm part of the overarching problem. But I'm also queer married to a trans person and the last thing my family needs is this version of the Conservative government under PP. What's happening in Alberta is a litmus test for the federal CPCs.

Totally understandable. I also did vote Carney to block PP. I wouldn't vote NDP in my riding if it's lib/con race as it usually is. I would help the movement win where it can tho. Insisting on wins in ridings where it's virtually impossible isn't useful. It's also a bit of waste of resources.
