lmao

this is essentially a rounding error across the board

actually how is green party canada, is green/NDP -/+1 a +0?

or is that a +2

For some reason I feel like I heard they were bad but that might be wrong

@Unionhawk Yeah this election was a complete waste of time

Luckily we also wasted money on it too

@Unionhawk Green - 1 and NDP +1

@Wipqozn right but is it essentially left-ish +0?

The green party leader didn't even win her own seat

congratulations to justin trudeau for picking up one seat of 300 or whatever

@Unionhawk Those seats aren't even finalized yet, so he might wind up losing seats

Also the bloc is left on some things and right on others

They're probably considered centre-left

That don't even exist outside Quebec though

And the PPC are the insane far, right anti vaxxer, anti immigration party. Also white supremacy.

Who luckily still have 0 seats, but got 5% of the vote this time (they got 1% in 2019), so that's horrifying.

> Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s re-elected minority government will face calls from the NDP for new taxes on the “ultra-rich” and calls from the Bloc Québécois for billions in new spending on health and seniors, after Canadian voters denied the Liberals the free rein of a majority mandate.

@Wipqozn Tax the ultra-rich for billions then spend it on healthcare and seniors. Easy solution

@Nzall I mean, the NDP would also like some form of basic income (probably guaranteed basic income to start), but the taxes probably have to come first.

Basically in his 'best case' election hes still getting fucked in every circonscription, including his own

tl;dr individuals can't really do anything but actually vote for and force politicians to take action, since it's corporations and the rich that product most carbon emissions

aka we're fucked :)

Because we live in an insane reality where people continue to deny climate change is even a thing and would vote to fund Forest fires to "screw the libs!"

That video is in my to watch list... but yeah. Doesn't change much trying to do stuff to be 'green' when I think the stat was that 75% of produce produced is not sold and ends up in the dumpster, for most of it
