For those that seek a future that brings together the best of the insights and objectives of people who, within the social democratic and democratic socialist traditions, have worked through farmer, labour, co-operative, feminist, human rights and environmental movements, and with First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, to build a more just, equal, and sustainable Canada within a global community dedicated to the same goals.

I agree that most political discourse from the left, in the last 15 years, has been shifting towards protecting victims of inequalities that the common law should already be protecting, and in so doing shifted focus from "what unites us" to "what separates us". I feel this inevitably leads to a divided society.

I fail to see why people feel forced to embrace beliefs they don't hold, though.

Can you give specific examples? Most of the rhetoric I've seen was about workers rights, because those are being trampled on often.
