      Liberals are bad
      But the conservatives are even worse and that says a lot.

      God I wish JT actually followed through on his original campaign promise of election reform.

        Same here, JT had a lot of potential and I voted for him in 2015 based of his promises, and you know what, I’m not going to vote for another 4 years of shitty liberal policy. The conservatives are arguably a much better option that the liberals this election.

          The conservatives don’t actually have a platform, they just have a handful of slogans. And they have a leader who is proudly ignorant, who would rather have the ability to sling accusations than learn about the subject.

          I don’t want to vote for JT, but there aren’t really any other options that don’t result in decimating public services so that PP can let his private sector friends loot the remains. Presumably, because again he has such a vacuous platform, you just have to go by the handful of slogans he has shouted out at rallies.

            frankly, both are bad, but I am voting “conservative” because another 4 years of trudeau isn’t really viable.

              I kind of agree.
              But he still seems more viable than PP. Neither is viable PP.

              JT seems like the lesser of evils.
              I wanna vote out JT so I can show the liberals that they can’t just lie to us and do whatever they want.
              But I also want to keep PP out of power so I can show the PCs that we won’t accept trumpian politicians who cultivate a cult of personality with empty platforms or anti-social policies.

                Eh, I think we can agree to disagree that they are both bad and one way or the other unfit to govern Canada. I see JT as an incompetent nepo baby who cant govern shit and PP is an equally incompetent politician who will end up being more or less just like JT. Either way, they are both the pretty same people who won’t change anything and continuously blame each other for their failures, all the while Canada suffers even more.

      The Liberals are spineless and not willing to fight the status quo unless prodded by some other party that’s propping up their minority government.

      The Conservatives are evil.

      Neither are ideal choices, but I’ll take spineless over evil any day of the week.
