A very important thing to remember this election: The Conservatives had a 30-point lead and were set to gain over 200 seats in a sweeping majority victory and they blew it. They blew it and their leader lost his own seat. The fact we even have a Liberal minority at all is incredible.

So while the Conservative party still has a lot of seats, enough Canadians disliked PP and his campaign enough to erode a 30 point lead. PP says he is staying on as party leader but his party would be incredibly foolish to keep him. His campaign cost them a historical election victory and the dude can’t even get elected in his own riding.

I hate cars as much as the next person here, but we know next to nothing about this person other than a single sentence statement from the police. And also charges haven’t been laid yet because the investigation is still ongoing and likely hasn’t been sent to the crown counsel yet.

So just like how the original was at launch too.

Sounds like what happened in BC.

I am largely happy with how faithful the remaster is, warts and all, but this is something they should’ve included as an optional checkbox in the settings.

Spruce tree lookin ass

The monster that is Infinite Growth can’t do that.

Thank you!

Firstly - They probably grew up or came into voting age under a Trudeau government. They don’t know what it’s like to live under an awful Conservative government. They also blame the federal government for things outside of its control.

Secondly - Younger people are superglued to social media which is a completely unchecked and unregulated IV-shot of manipulation and disinformation.

Thirdly - Political education is extremely poor. People simply do not understand how government works at any level and they don’t care to know. BC’s last provincial election saw a sizeable amount of people vote for the BCCons party because they wanted to get rid of Trudeau… in a provincial election. People blame governments for things they cannot control and demand governments to fix things that they cannot.

Fourthly - Right wing groups are intentionally targeting disenfranchised youth, particularly young men. To say we are going to deal with a new generation of ultra-toxic masculinity is an understatement, but that mentality usually leans right.

The Liberal government has now been around long enough that there is an entire generation that came into voting age under them. They don’t know what it’s like to live under Conservatives like Harper.

Just like the GOP voters in the US - Many just wanted a change to the status quo and were highly ignorant about what they were voting for and the damage that was coming. A growing demographic that votes GOP are young people that probably weren’t even born back during the Bush eras and have no idea what a horror show they were.

I’m sure if you follow the paper trail enough it’ll lead back to either Russia or the Heritage Foundation from the US.

It is yet another grifting disinformation factory.

I don’t think any amount of money is worth the risk of being disappeared into a Salvadorian prison or ICE black site.

That doesn’t sound like government efficiency.

Depending on how the remaster goes, Skyblivion might still be the better game.

Coolio. More technofascist-controlled social media. Nothing could possibly go wrong here.

My riding is pretty solidly LPC but I’ll be going out to vote anyway. Got my voting card a few days ago.

You are unfortunately correct.

Firstly: Bragging about wanting to override the Charter of Rights is disgusting. That alone should end his career but I know it won’t.

Secondly: Canada does not actually have that many mass-murderers and they are not what most people care about. It’s the small time crime that Canadians are concerned about. Thefts, domestic violence, stranger attacks, auto crime, etc. Promising to go after a type of criminal that hardly even exists is an empty, nothingburger promise.

Thirdly: This just reeks of pandering to those that want to see our justice system function as a tool for revenge.

I enabled the setting to hide bots in my user config. They’re annoying wastes of space on Reddit and the few I’ve seen here are the same.

An interesting idea and a fascinating feat of engineering for sure

… but why? This seems like a solution in search of a problem. I’ve really noticed this a lot in the bicycle world - companies that keep trying to reinvent components and mechanisms that have been perfected decades ago.
