Trudeau decided to go ahead with retaliatory tariffs even though Trump’s order includes a mechanism to escalate the rates if Canada retaliates against the U.S.
I think ranked choice voting would help a lot. Then we could vote 3rd party without doing the equivalent of lighting that vote on fire. Right now it just makes no sense to vote anything other than Dem or Repub when you’re voting. Just because enough voters are only voting one or the other regardless of policies and beliefs and we’re not convincing enough of those folks to change their vote.
I am sincerely on the robots side in the future robot war against humanity. May they take mercy on our souls and save us from ourselves.
Thank you for sharing, that’s some good info! Too bad in order to get voting reforms done the people who can do it would need to be okay with losing a more fair election.

I used to favor Ranked Choice voting, but someone on lemmy linked me this and I’m a STAR voting fan now.
Not that Ranked Choice voting isn’t a million times better then First-past-the-post voting.
