Why are you trying to conflate Canadian Liberals and the Democrats? They aren't remotely the same party, the systems of government don't look anything alike and they aren't in cahoots.
And the Canadian Conservatives are fronting a guy who has stated his support of American style "Right to Work" legislation and other Americanizing government initiatives who went into politics immediately from going to school for international affairs against a guy who has spent years as Governor of two National Central Banks and created a number of international contacts across the Commonwealth in the international financial sector that can be leveraged and yet Conservatives are trying to paint themselves as "better for the economy". Pollievre has been utilizing anti gay anti queer dogwhistles in his rhetoric for the past ever as well. Fuck Right to Work bullshit and fuck anybody who wants to roll back civil protections. There's not a lot of places in the world as safe as Canada for queer people to exist so it's not like there's much better places to escape once the fortress falls.
I'm not. I'm telling you that running a campaign on nothing other than 'not that guy' is a recipe for a disaster.
Do. not. fall. into. that. trap.
its a trap this entire thread demostrates people are actively falling into.
You are literally describing the fucking conservatives with that. Their entire fucking campaign leading up to this moment was: WeRe NoT JusTiN. Lmao
step 1: stop worrying about what the other candidate is doing.
step 2: make a case why how your candidate is going to improve the lives of your fellow citizens.
step 3: success.
I see you still don't understand step 1.
??? You guys already starting the misinformation station? Gtfo of here and grow up.
What he's asking is pretty basic and on point. You're yelling at people to vote for a party that has failed Canadians in the past 10 years and people aren't exactly convinced that the new guy will bring about any change that will significantly improve their lives.
So why don't you try to convince us? What are your arguments for voting for them?
