I’m sick of him strangling our healthcare system so he can introduce a private option.
And we need to kill that stupid $60bn “one more lane” tunnel under the 401 and invest in mass transit instead.
I’m still shocked the deal to let his developer friends build on the green belt didn’t sink him completely. For a group of people who complain about Liberal scandals all the time they sure ignore his bullshit.
My support has coalesced to the NDP this election, but frankly I’m not feeling motivated by the parties.
The Conservatives need a swift kick to the nuts though for refusing to campaign in Ontario except shitty tv ads.
No costed platform (again), no media interviews, and the only promise is “if just you give us another majority we’ll fix the problems that we let fester through 9 years of majority governance”
I don’t understand why conservatives will with no costed platforms.
When I told a friend from high school always who supported the conservatives that the federal conservatives in 2019 was the only major party that didn’t have a PDF with a full platform, he said he didn’t care and just wanted to vote conservatives because conservatives would be “good for business”.
Why is there so many people who think like this.
Yes, it was and it is, and it’s gonna work, too - because most of us are stupid as fuck
I believe voter apathy is primarily caused by FPTP/winner-take-all systems. Therefore, the only viable long term solution is proportional representation: https://lemmy.ca/c/fairvote
People here have no idea what the government does so even if we switched systems they likely wouldn’t know it
Not voting is not a way to achieve that though. As of now, parties get funding based on the number of votes they receive, so people should go out and vote even if the candidate they want to win doesn’t have a good chance.
Yes, definitely still on the side of voting in proportional representation supporting candidates! So that would be NDP/Greens.
For Doug Ford the only viable long-term solution is FPTP and an apathetic population which reliably delivers Conservative governments. Other arrangements have to be fought for.
Denmark got a voter turnout of 84% during the last general election in 2022. Who knew voting for your favourite candidate gets you out to the polls.
