Two generational NDP ridings in my area flipped Con because of Liberal voters. So, I can't say I particularly give a shit about how this would hypothetically empower the PC Party, since our local needs will definitely be ignored in the foreseeable future anyway, maybe forever if a Lib gets elected next. The fact is that a minority government, either PC or Liberal, would have far less power at its disposal to enact these common neoliberal policies. Instead, "Elbows Up," we have a majority Liberal parliament that is aggressively slashing environmental protections, funnelling public wealth into private corporations for "sovereignty-"based mining and fossil fuel drilling, and implementing authoritarian internet surveillance policies; of course, all without consideration of indigenous peoples or First Nations. Wow, what a difference.

Don't act like you're considering the trans genocide rhetoric that PP was running on either, because it's not like Carney has done anything to address the spread of anti-trans hatespeech or the restricted access to gender-affirming care achieved throug privatization. Is it better because now it isn't talked about at all besides by the victims?

So the NDP lost in your riding and your still arguing that I should have voted for them in mine?
