I sincerely hope you learn something from this. This is the Liberal m.o. and has been for years. They're a big business party, and don't have typical Canadian's interests at heart. Their most redeeming feature is that they're not the Cons.

If you actually care about bettering the lives of typical Canadians, then look at what parties have track records of getting results. (Hint: A lot of Canadians just got dental care.)

PP didn't seem like a good choice to me. And there was no way any other party had a shot.

Because we're always told they don't have a shot.

But, let's just say, as of today, nobody votes liberal again. It would likely be the party that also gave use universal healthcare to at least take a minority.

No more vote splitting.

The only party that is remotely aligned with the people is the NDP. (And some greens.)

If nobody votes for the party that actually represents their interests, then shockingly the party that represents their interests will not have a shot. It's a self-defeating strategy.

"Strategic" voting is a long term recipe for a US-style system where there's only room for two parties.
