Would you rather be punched in the face, neck, or balls? There is no best option. The options are 3 parties who will, without a doubt, make this country less livable to varying degrees.

Sorry buddy, but being dragged up and offered where to be punched, I'm absolutely exercising my right to choose (and to be honest, I'm kind of thinking neck at the moment). I refuse to be a sad sack that gets punched in the balls and laments that there was no other option.

Proud to choose a punch in the neck because at least it wasn't the balls! Our political system is woefully broken.

We have systems for that. We can join the various 'teams' of people doing the punching and we can, as a group, demand that they change their practices - next convention the group votes on replacing ball punches with a hearty 'punchbuggy' to the shoulder. Several leaders run and make promises on how hearty to make that shoulder-punch, and we select someone for the next election between face, neck and shoulder. You don't get to complain about where the 3 parties are punching if you aren't in there telling them to change their target - otherwise you got party die-hards saying things like "we've always punched to the neck, and that's what Canadians want."
