Federal government bypasses Ontario, offers money directly to Toronto to end encampments
  • Dougie thinks that radio silence will eventually cause people to blame the federal government, just like his inaction during the freedom convoy protests in Ottawa.

    Fuck his fat complacent ass. At least Olivia Chow actually gives a shit about the job.

  • Andrew Scheer avoids answering if Conservatives will cancel dental care program
  • Polls show liberals tracking behind conservatives by 20 points back in July. Even if this figure is exaggerated, when you include the loss of that so called "safe" seat in June, the trend is only worsening, and everybody but Trudeau can read the writing on the wall.

    Dont dismiss this as "fake news" unless you want a conservative majority next election.

  • Conservatives win longtime Liberal stronghold Toronto-St. Paul's in shock byelection result
  • I completely disagree with the idea that people who do not choose to display unfettered consequentialism are responsible for negative outcomes, especially when the numbers are so small that it's barely relevant. Your view of politics is so polarized and embittered that it alienates anybody who looks at the world with shades of grey. Believe whatever you want, but if your takeaway is that the Liberal party should blame everybody else but themselves for their loss, then you will be just as rudderless as the party leadership when they lose the next election.

  • That is an absurd argument to make in a functional democracy, and I find it appalling you lack any self awareness of how entitled and cynical you sound. Why not direct this venom at the people of the riding who didn't vote, rather than the people who participated in democracy as intended? Why have venom at all?

    If I was a swing voter, I would make sure any party whose supporters try to guilt trip me for exercising citizen's rights to vote (for whoever I want) is punished at the ballot box. That's not a winning strategy - that's being a sore loser.

  • I don't disagree with that. Poilievre won't want to burn political capital on this issue and would much rather neglect these services, even if it's fiscally irresponsible to saddle future governments with the bill for cleaning these messes up. Yea, it is exhausting to watch important services degrade day by day.

    But once again, this only underscores the need to establish electoral reform so that a plurality of 40% will never again grant the Conservatives a majority government with which they can sledgehammer our institutions.
