    Canada has very similar issues to the Untied States. One party of fascists and another party of people who don’t try very hard because they’re running on “at least we’re not the fascists”

      And a third party, with good policies, which everyone desperately wants to pretend has zero chance. The US has a real two-party system; ours is by choice. It’s stupid as hell that we just keep letting it happen.

        What we need is ranked choice voting so people can vote NDP without the risk of it leading to conservatives winning

          Yea, and the LPC has already shown us that they refuse to make that happen because they know what would mean. The Conservatives would never, but the LPC literally ran on it and then through away any changes because it would mean denocracy would destroy them. They don’t give a flying fuck about what we think, they only want power, and they’re certainly not going to make things better if we keep electing them.
