  • That’s silly. Canada needs more people, and we will probably be forced to take in people from down south soon enough, if they have a hot/violent summer. We need to build up out of the current crises, not pretend we libe on the moon.

    Build up:

    • More walkable, transit oriented mixed use, dense and off market housing.
    • Fast track recognition of credentials of newly arrived professionals
    • Invest in interprovincial infrastructure: trains, renewables, smart grid, fast internet
    • A civil defence corps to prepare for climate resilience and emergencies
    • A civil service corps to rebuild and revitalize rural and indigenous communities













  • When it comes to opposing Israeli apartheid itself, sure, almost no. I guess the difference is the Liberals will not oppose the ICJ and ICC, whereas the Conservatives would align with Trump in smashing them. That’s a low bar.

    When it comes to crushing the opposition here in Canada, hell yea, there is a difference: Poiliievre wants to deport activists, ICE style.. The Liberals haven’t gone to any such extreme.

    Ultimately, look, we don’t have a presidential election, we have 343 MP elections in as many ridings. If the Conservatives have any chance at winning your riding, rally around whoever is not a fascist to defeat them, be that NDP, Liberal or Bloc. KEEP THE MAPLE MAGA OUT. In any other riding, do vote for Palestine. A Liberal minority is still a great outcome for Canada anyway.
