    But, but, but I was told we all had to vote Carney to prevent right wing policies!

      Conflating the Conservatives and Liberals because of some ideological overlap isn’t useful.

      Let’s lay it out plainly, we prevented the worst case scenario but it still moved us to the right. We need to advocate for left wing policies and do our best to keep our politician’s honest. However we won’t see results until we can apply direct pressure with votes, neglecting the adoption of a more progressive voting system was the true failure of the Trudeau government.
