The federal Liberals are seeing a dive in popularity among younger voters, once the core of their base, falling 23 points behind the Conservatives by the end of August, according to new polling from Nanos Research.

The most pressing issue for young people is housing/cost of living. Whether or not this is typically the responsibility of the federal government, paying only lip service to the issue or saying not my problem enrages people. The federal government needs to actually show some leadership and find some way to incentivize more housing (and specifically denser and affordable housing) at the local level or build it themselves.

While I definitely fault the libs for not doing more, I'm not impressed with the conservative or NDP takes on this issue either.

A lot of us are pissed at the lie about changing FPTP as well.

That's why I won't vote Liberal again. I wanted legalized weed and better elections.
