I’ll hold my nose and vote Liberal if it means no Conservatives. I am a leftist and vote NDP in a very lefty city, but Jagmeet is not really doing a good job keeping the party afloat and it’s kind of in the weeds at the federal level. I think the only way Polievre will win at this point is if he promises to close the door to most immigration save for the highly skilled people we need, because wow do Canadians ever hate immigrants now. (Not that immigration doesn’t need reform but I’ve never seen such naked hatred of them in my whole life here). if he promised housing reform that would help him a lot, but he’ll never deliver on that. Also a lot of immigrants are more conservative and will probably vote for him, so he would cut off his nose to spite his face if he shut them out. I live next to a Sikh neighbourhood and they all seem to vote conservative.

Every. Damned. Time.
The biggest thing the Reds offer is a blocking action against the blue.
The best thing we had, and we’ll look back on in the future, is when Mr Singh patiently and calmly leveraged a minority red government in support of slowly providing for regular people.
… and then he stopped doing it patiently or calmly and fell into a big pit of ego and special interest; but before that it was the most leverage he and his party had for improving regular people in a long time. I don’t expect the oranges to be in a similar position for years to come, unfortunately.

I really wish Jack Layton had lived. Things would be absolutely great under him. The NDP need a strong blue collar union person as their lead.
