We Got Dentalcare and Pharmacare Due to The Liberals Being The Minority Government
According to 338Canada the liberals are likely to have comfortable majority of the seats.
The media landscape gives Pierre Poilievre and Mark Carney too much attention. We must cover all the political beliefs of Canada.

I expect better than a "maybe" and "I haven't been thinking about it" on proportional representation Mark Carney.
Just stop trying to split the vote.
Stop enabling the 2-party system that serves corporate interests.
Maybe later, right now we're trying to keep the traitors out of the house, not make them part of the government.
If not now, when?
After we make sure we don't get taken over by nazis. Been paying any attention to the usa ? It fucking matters. Now is not the fucking time. Do not fuck this up for everybody.
Yes; lets not do the thing that's proven to make it more difficult for nazis because we have a system that is more susceptible to them
Dead fucking ideas do not help.
If not now when?
I love the block feature, I'm never going to see one of your comments again. It's great.
I don't think he wants to do anything at all with electoral reform given the prevous track record of the liberals promising it and the eagerness for conservatives to find slander. If asked my guess is he would give a "this isn't Canada's biggest issue right now" type response.
Yup, too many of the powerful few always claim it’s never the right time for electoral reform.
I could see him supporting it while running for a second term. I doubt he would want to do more than 2 terms and it would be an excellent parting gift to Canadians. It would be great if we could have leaders who recognize the issues with some voters feeling like they have to vote strategically and try to fix that with electoral reform. Many politicians would rather stick to the game they know of being better than the other candidiate than learn how to make competitive platforms and push for new solutions.
He's gotta win a difficult election and unfortunately winning isn't done on a slate of issues when the electorate is laser focused on a couple. He's found a good thread on Trump and the economy and he's hammering those into people's heads. That's a good strategy that seems to be working. I wish electoral reform was still a top issue in this race but it doesn't seem to be and I'm afraid him bringing it up might be counterproductive given the trauma from Trudeau on this file. I hope we can bring this issue to the forefront when a Carney government falls in the need of PR itself. Unlike Trudeau who was ideologically opposed to it, I think there is a decent chance Carney the pragmatist might do a reform to save his ass.
E: To clarify, Carney's win is not assured at all. There's plenty of shit that can go down over the next two weeks which can make this a tossup or even a likely PP.
