I hate this country's politics. Voting our leaders should not be about the least bad option.

You're not gonna lie any other country's politics then, either.

Some countries actually have politcal debates about the positives a leader will bring rather than the negatives the oposition will. Some countries have even had leaders step down when their policies left their politicians or citezens too divided.

True. Things have gotten worse, though. I remember being fairly shocked by the first Harper campaign, the depths they went to amplify anger towards the Liberal party. To be fair, the Liberals had it coming and needed to be replaced, but they needed to be replaced by the Tories, not the Reform party (which is what the Conservative party was and is)
