If that happens we're gonna end up identical to the US with one party always rushing rightward and the other party refusing to do anything more than vaguely progressive lest they lose voters to the other.
Our two largest parties are both right wing parties, one embraces the far right, one hovers close to he centre but stays firmly on the right of it, our third parties are what kept the LPC from embracing truly horrendous legislation and with them weakened the LPC is now fully embracing conservatism.
Yet the reason fascists like Aaron Gunn won is because people voted liberals in ridings the NDP were leading in.
But y'know what let's toss the NDP and get one step closer to a two party system like the US, it definitely won't be bad for us..
Hopefully whatever Carney must've offered actually happens so some working class Canadians can benefit from the red tie conservatives having a majority.
The reality is there is not a single MP in this country elected purely off their name. Party is a significant reason for many voters and beliefs are another, Idlout just joined a party that isn't the one she ran as and isn't in line with any of the beliefs and values she ran for under the NDP.
This has been the NDPs official policy for years that floor crossing is wrong.
You should learn that.
Okay? It's still wrong no matter who does it. It's a betrayal of consistently because like it or or not were a country that votes for party and person.
The PCs went from a majority to two seats at one point, and though their branding changed they are the official opposition right now.
The NDP didn't exist since confederation but since the CCF changed and the CCF didn't exist since confederation either so they came from literally nothing.
If a lib leaves their party for whatever reason and joins another I will be just as mad as I am about the cons leaving their party for the libs and Idlout crossing from the NDP to live because it is a betrayal of their constituents vote since party is part of the decision.
having x values and then that person joins a party that has done nothing but oppose those values, then the reason they voted for the person was betrayed.
Now if you want to look around come an election you'll see the letters of a party right next to their face on their signs, their emails and letters brandined with the party, they campaign spreading the party's message.
Oh and here's a reminder, if someone votes for a person due to them
You and the rest of the people who ignore how much parties matter to voters need to wake up instead of celebrating our growing two party system.
The NDP do not accept floor crossers and have criticized every floor crossing this parliment.
The liberals under Carney have literally done everything to not work with parliament instead playing chicken to pass unpopular bills.
He also already said he fully supports the war.
"Canada supports the United States acting to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and to prevent its regime from further threatening international peace and security."

It is amazing how many people say our Prime Minister does not support the war of aggression the US and Israel are comitting against Iran when his first statement says Canada supports it and every later statement refused to condemn it, at best hes been slightly critical of how the wars been done.
Being invaded and the world not even lifting a finger will be worse for us but hey, cant get the world to stand for international law because carney and his friends will lose money.
Both usher in fascism and harm the public, one just lets austerity kill minorities while the other actively targets minorites.
They should only be allowed to go independent. Floor crossing betrays constituents since the person and party are both reasons they were elected.
Hey why don't you change your PFP to something ai couldn't make your username to something ai wouldn't have generated and write in a way AI definitely can't, you're just helping slop hide.
Oh and I almosy forgot the rest of north america not in cusma
What about most of africa south america most of asia and much of euorpe who we dont trade with much and who arent ruled by fascists whose govts murdered our citizens?
Weve waited a year, how do you not see he doesnt give a damn about regular people, just the ultrawealthy.
fuck those iranian civllians right? The ones who were breaking their regime only for the US and Israel to bomb the shit out of everyone.
Becuase like us here in Canada the US elected a shit person.
Carney aint a fascist but his pro business shtick and trade deals with fascists aint good for the public.
because he means that kind, hes a friend to big businesses not the average person.
We could learn from others and vote for better or we can keep consigning ourselves to voting for the two parties ruining us. Hell we could learn from our provinces like Ontario where the cons libs and NDP all have led govt.
Because we never vote for them because they'll never form govt because we won't vote for them because they'll never form govt.
The UK which is quite similar to us just watched the Tories collapse spectacularly and now labour is doing the same with their third parties picking up the slack.
We're a two party system?
