This. A thousand times this.
The same implosion in young, urban support happened in the US for the Democrats, and for the same reason: millenials and zoomers are tired of being sucked dry for the comfort of Boomer and elder-X'ers housing-based retirement fund.
Want to fix this? Forgive student debt and actually put shovels in the ground for housing (not "accelerator funds", not tax breaks, not low-interest loans to developers: fucking buy equipment, pay people, and build shit)
Ford folded: after the tariff decision was paused (not cancelled, paused) dutifully restocked shelves and the overpaid StarLink deal is back on.
His "Canada is not For Sale" schtick is just that: a schtick. Mark my words, if Trump wanted to build housing on greenbelt land, Ford would Get It (Doug Ford) Done! He (Ford) is the most for-sale politician in the country, and that's saying something when you're competing with Danielle Smith.
Susan Holt in NB did a good job. American goods are still off the shelves.
My brother in Christ, have you read the NYT recently?
It's pumping out what I dearly hope is satire every day
Most other premiers aren't held bankrupt by UCP crazies who'll force a leadership review if they don't toe the fascist line.
Smith, on the other hand, owes her whole career to appeasing right-wing nutjobs.
Is the intent to make Taiwan just roll over and invite China in?
Because it sure fucking looks like it.
For me, glasses (which I wear normally) and a helmet with a visor. That usually works; if I tilt my head down, the visor normally blocks any rain while riding
What I would like is something for dealing with lens fogging in snow when I'm wearing a balaclava. Ski goggle work, but I hate wearing them.
Ah, did you work for a Volkswagen or General Motors supplier in the late 1990s and early 2000s?
Because I recall that exact situation, and the resulting crash of quality.
I'd vote for, eg, John Robarts. Maybe Bill Davis.
Fucking dipshit who doesn't know what tariffs and trade deficits are continues to be ignorant. News at 11.
This is a "Not all conservatives are Nazis, but all Nazis are conservative" distinction.
Poillevre might not actually goosestep and wear a snappy-looking black Hugo Boss uniform and make undesirable people into soap while stealing their gold teeth, but people who do those things vote for Poillevre and give him money.
Conversely, people who vote for Singh...don't.
I'm not voting for the conservatives until I hear full-throated rejection of bigoted policies, and right now, all I hear is bitching about "woke this" and "DEI that".
Wasn't this the one where the whole reason they chased the perp is because he disrespected the cops?
The NDP keeps making the same mistake: they try to be "serious" and "centrist" and get flanked by the Liberals every fucking time because, if you want a socially liberal but economically centrist party, the Liberals already fucking exist.
The NDP has been ducking the "socialist" label since Ontario's Rae government fell because they're big scared of being called socialists. Which is hysterical because the conservatives will call anyone left Mussolini "socialist!" because, in right-wing circles, words don't have meaning.
They're refusing to fight the class war, and as a result they've ceded the working class to the fucking Conservatives. Which is insane.
Charlie Angus is about the only NDP member making a lot of noise about this, and he's retiring. The NDP should be a populist party, but they're afraid to be
