Welcome to 2020?

Or 2010 if you're a French Canadian, because r/Canada being shit with French Canadians has always been the norm.

I love how Canadians shit on the Bloc Québécois, but if you post their platform without a name attached everyone thinks it's the greatest party ever.

Hell, look at the current party leaders and tell me Yves-François Blanchet isn't the only one you would put in the PM position!

I am begging for a change to our voting system at this point almost as much as I am begging for people to actually read the election programmes. Look past the face on the TV, learn what they actually stand for folks!

Pro tip, as someone who's been around enough politicians to know: They're all acting, all the time. You can't win an election any other way.

If you actually buy what they're selling personality-wise you're a sucker. Read the damn platforms, or just ignore politics.

That's literally what we were just talking about, the party platforms and the leader's ability to discuss them.

Exactly why I commented that. :-)
