No one’s ever got perfect, he said. He dares everyone that disagrees with him on policy to go up against his score.

Sounds like he’s surrounded by sycophants telling him how smart he is.

Your tax dollars at work. The in-group doesn’t pay taxes.

You’re speaking of something that sounds dangerously like investing in science. I hope you’re hiding your IP. /s maybe

The CPC are fully a bunch of whiny lickspittles. They FAFO’d themselves out of power and continue to FAFO.

Politically progressive people should actually be hyper vigilant rn, since we’re low key headed in the same policy direction as ICE T down south.

Spoilers, they already lost

AI Summary

The video presents a compelling argument in favor of adopting proportional representation (PR) in Canada, challenging the current first-past-the-post (FPTP) electoral system. Andrew Coyne opens the debate by highlighting the inherent flaws and democratic deficiencies in FPTP, which often results in minority rule, unequal vote value, and the disenfranchisement of many voters. He critiques the common resistance to change, emphasizing that the frustrations with Canadian politics are not inevitable but symptoms of the outdated electoral system. Coyne points out that FPTP frequently produces governments that do not represent the majority of voters, with some parties winning a disproportionate number of seats relative to their popular vote. The system also encourages strategic voting, where citizens feel forced to vote against their preferences to block undesirable candidates. Furthermore, the geographic distribution of votes heavily influences outcomes, benefiting regionally concentrated parties and marginalizing those with broader national appeal. Coyne concludes by arguing that the current system wastes many votes and has even threatened national unity, making a strong case for proportional representation as a more democratic and equitable alternative.

Highlights

• 🗳️ Canada’s current first-past-the-post system often results in minority governments that do not reflect the majority’s will.

• ⚖️ Votes have unequal value under FPTP; some voters’ ballots are effectively worth much more than others.

• 🏛️ FPTP tends to favor regionally concentrated parties while disadvantaging those with broad national support.

• 🚫 Many voters feel compelled to vote strategically rather than for their preferred party to avoid “wasting” their vote.

• 🔄 The current system can produce one-party dominance with little or no effective opposition, undermining democratic debate.

• 💥 Electoral reform is often resisted due to fear of change, despite clear democratic shortcomings of the status quo.

• 🇨🇦 The flaws of FPTP have contributed to serious political tensions, even threatening Canadian unity.

It’s amazing when prices go up, wages go down, and unemployment goes up, just how many people can’t understand basic things like their grocery bill when politics are somehow involved, lol.

Not to belittle their plight in OP, and their are degrees of it, but nearly half of Murcans are victims of systemic forced labour IMO
