We still have our wallets, and the will weaponize them.

The consumers are the ones that end up paying the tariff costs. This is fine.

We voted in a traitor 🤷

Selling us out to make the line go up.

But wasn't the other guy worse?

[-] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 17 points 10 months ago

Yes.

I'm still not happy with Carney though.

We don't have a two party system. There was more than a binary choice.

Canadians need to forget this red vs blue 🐂💩

There are other options.

Only 2 had a realistic chance to form a Government.

That's what sucks about a hypothetical let's say 20% 40% 40% split. The 20% supporters and others not confirmed always say well I'm not throwing away my vote and switch to voting for one of the 40% parties.

Fun fact, even with our shitty voting system if everyone votes a certain way things will go that way. It’s not a gamble, we can just vote for what we want. We can delay it and try to fix it when it’s even harder and more dangerous or start now.
