    There are literally six choices apart from the big 2 that meet that description that’s 54% of them, you didn’t actually look at the choices.

    1. Afaik only 5 of them are non-extremist, BC Strong is extremist, “Freedom Party of British Columbia” is also extremist, “Party of Citizens Who Have Decided To Think For Ourselves & Be Our Own Politicians” also sounds extremist af.
    2. I said our districts didn’t have any of those.

    You don’t actually know how many people support these parties since everyone is forced to strategically vote

    1. That was mainly countering this, my point was that I know his views and positions on individual issues.

    Also, sure the NDP has a one seat majority, but they still signed a cooporation agreement with the greens because a 1 seat majority leaves them vulnerable af.

    Sure, but I know my friend, the only thing he’s not is a communist or fascist that leaves him open to center-right, center, center-left, and left. Almost non of those meet that description.

    They actually have a razor thin majority.

    Yeah I forgot, but after giving one to speaker position, they need a green party vote.

    95% of countries that got proportional representation did so through multiparty agreements.

    I agree, and I support it, but if it does happen, the opposition is going to go crazy because even though we pretend to be better, we’re really about as stupid as the US. We just have better systems.


  • I don’t get how any of that are negatives. I like guis, cli is good for scrupting, but what happens if/when you forget or just dont know a command or it’s options? Time to open the manual and spend hours learning exactly what argument and parameters does what.

    Basic options on Linux requires terminal, last time I tried changing network settings like DNS on Gnome or KDE I had to fix their BS with nmtui, but sure linux is so ready…

    Ofcourse we support proportional representation, except most of those parties we don’t agree with and/or they just don’t have a candidate in our districts.

    Also NDP rn has a minority gov anyway so they might be forced by the Greens to try something.

    What really pisses me off is that we had a referendum on this in 2018 and 61% voted for the current FPP system.






  • Thank you! I’ve heard so many Canadians on subreddits want collective punishment and don’t want American victims of Trump to come to Canada even though they can be a massive help to both our economy and our weight in the world through higher numbers of educated people (brain gain instead of drain)! Lets not forget 49.9% voted for trump, the rest are fine imo.
