I love how much money taxpayers spend on this shit but it's the corpos that get to name the place.
Probably because they were raised in the post-Soviet mafia era.
They compete on prices just like the grocery stores competed on bread prices
This is the same argument that my original comment is against. You just labelled the Liberal + NDP bucket as "left".
If we had a ranked ballot (I don't actually want ranked ballot, but it's useful for demonstrating my point), I would rank NDP as 1 and not rank Liberals or CPC because I don't like either of them. Just because the Liberals are left of the CPC does not make them "left", and does not magically earn them every NDP vote.
Likewise, I'm sure there are Liberal voters who would rather have CPC than NDP.
There is no collective "left" of all NDP + Liberal voters.
That's probably true for NDP voters (i.e. they'd rather have a Liberal government than CPC), but I don't think it's true that Liberal voters would rather have NDP than Conservative.
We're both just speculating though, there's probably some actual info on this from people studying ranked ballots
I hate this mentality of bucketing Liberals and NDP together. They're different parties with different policies, and one of the main benefits of PR is that leftists don't have to compromise our values and vote Liberal just to prevent Conservatives from winning. Treating it like left vs right just pushes us towards the Democrat vs Republican in the US.
This is a conspiracy.
A conspiracy? Trudeau is the only one in that list that is PM lol
(and he did promise to end FPTP and didn't)

A degree Celsius is not coarse and does not require decimals in weather reports, and I suspect only a person who has never lived in a Celsius-using country could make such silly claims.
