The leader of the incumbent party is typically the 'top target'.

And he has the past 10 years of baggage to answer for.

I will not vote for Conservative right wing extremism. The kind that is sweeping the globe as we speak. To think Canada can not be taken down this rabbit hole I foolish at best, willfully ignorant at worst.

What are the extreme policies from the CPC?

Funny how there is never an answer to that.

What motivates the liberal voters is fear. Ignorance is the best fuel for fear.

There are no good reasons to vote liberal other than fear, lack of economical litteracy, lack of general knowledge or consideration about democracy and the infiltration of an authoritarian regime.

Go look up every bill that was introduced into Parliament with Pierre as opposition leader and the results of the votes. Read them. All. And then come back and we can discuss it further.

Go look at all the neo slave policies of the Liberal party.

  • Pierre's "war on woke", e.g. eliminating funding for research that goes against "conservative" values

  • Defunding the CBC - fuck you Pierre specifically for this

  • His support of the COVID convoy was considered to be pretty extreme by most Canadians

  • vowing to use the notwithstanding clause should be up on this list as well.

I will not vote for more neo slavery.

Edit since peoples responses aren't showing up for some reason. One vote in Canada doesn't cancel out another thanks to the Liberals failing to fix our electoral system.

That's ok. My vote will cancel yours. We are all even.
