The federal Liberals are seeing a dive in popularity among younger voters, once the core of their base, falling 23 points behind the Conservatives by the end of August, according to new polling from Nanos Research.
The NDP is a shit show. First thing to recover some respect would be to fire Navneet Singh and elect someone who isn’t a liberal puppet. Then offer up transparent, understandable and quick solutions to Canadians problems, people will listen. Cut back some of the carbon tax, lay off the crazy illogical gun bans and double down on being for the worker. I believe the common worker is pretty fed up with how management and CEO’s are making a ton of money while they struggle. Becoming the party that backs the everyman may allow them to steal the centrist vote for themselves as well as harness the populist voters who are angry and want change. I dunno maybe I’m crazy. I get why Poilievre is popular, I’m just not sure he is the answer the people are looking for.
It’s really hurting the northern communities who rely on trucks to bring food, cars for transport (especially in the winter when it’s -35 and there is 5 feet of snow) and most of our industry relies on big trucks to transport logs and resources. The communities are spread out sometimes hours apart. Not all of them have groceries or relevant necessities so people have to travel. I’m not pro oil and gas, I historically vote green (I know i know), but at the moment there is no good alternative. Electric isn’t there yet plus very little infrastructure, I’m waiting for hydrogen because apparently there is a hydrogen combustion engine in Japan. Again no infrastructure for that yet. We could also stop selling crude to the Chinese and buying back refined oil. We could ensure the process is as clean as possible instead of trusting foreign environmental regulations which most likely would not be as stringent as ours.
Call me what you like but I do care for the environment, I worry about our future and the future of the children on this earth. I am not planning on having kids, but it saddens me to think of their future. I would give anything to ensure the earth’s future generations have a secure, peaceful futur.
No no it’s okay. I wanted to understand your point of view. I can see your point. I never thought that the carbon tax would apply to transportation of food and other resources. I thought it was only for big companies with big factories and such.

I agree with most of what you said. But I’m curious why cut back the carbon tax?

It hits all Canadians. Our gas prices go up, food prices go up and some how grocery stores are making record profits.
