cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canada’s Bill C-2 Opens the Floodgates to U.S. SurveillanceEnglish1·3 days agoYeah but Jagmeet stepped down. He’s no longer the party leader for the NDP.
Yeah the Cons are worst, but only on a moral level. Because so far the Liberal party has been on the same level as the Cons economically. Cutting government jobs to cut costs, working with oil companies to push for a big oil pipeline project to sell to Europe. Eroding our rights to privacy with a Canadian version of the Patiot act. Not applying counter tarrifs on American resources, to the advantage of the American economy and our detriment. I mean, those things will have lasting consequences. And that’s just the first impression he’s giving.
I don’t think I want to wait to see what comes next.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canada’s Bill C-2 Opens the Floodgates to U.S. SurveillanceEnglish3·4 days agoReally?? Canadians are happy with him? That’s not the vibe I’m getting. Even my parents who are hard core liberals are disappointed.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canada’s Bill C-2 Opens the Floodgates to U.S. SurveillanceEnglish5·4 days agoWell if the left in this country could stop nitpicking and waiting for the perfect candidate / party to show up and instead give them a chance for once…
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canada’s Bill C-2 Opens the Floodgates to U.S. SurveillanceEnglish31·4 days agoThat’s just stupid. If everybody simply thinks that, of course it’ll never happen. We have to change this mentality.
Also, I honestly think a minority conservative government with a strong NDP with whom the Liberals would’ve had to work with would’ve been a better outcome than this.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canada’s Bill C-2 Opens the Floodgates to U.S. SurveillanceEnglish5·4 days agoThey would still have been better than wherever the fuck we have right now. They wouldn’t have voted to force the return to work of the Air Canada employees for one.
They would also have put pressure on provincial governments to improve public healthcare services instead of letting them fuck over the system to push for private services. Etc.
They would’ve been so much better. Even if they are a mess.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canada’s Bill C-2 Opens the Floodgates to U.S. SurveillanceEnglish141·5 days agoIt hasn’t even been a year!!! Sheesh!
Edit: I can’t believe we’re here already. At a point where we already want a new government, I mean. But I warned people during the elections that they were going to be disappointed after voting liberal.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Federal labour board deems Air Canada flight attendants' strike 'unlawful'English62·5 days agoWhat’s unlawful is not paying your employees for the time they’ve worked.
What’s unlawful is removing their right to go on strike and removing any kind of leverage for them to negotiate.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•88% of Canadians support Air Canada flight attendants, new poll confirmsEnglish5·5 days agoUnder Carney? Or just the Liberals since 2015?
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•88% of Canadians support Air Canada flight attendants, new poll confirmsEnglish12·5 days agoI disagree. Because this can lead to abuses. A fair wage is getting paid for every minute of work that you perform, from the moment you set foot in your place of work, from the moment you step out. And that means an airport.
Heck I’d even add that people should be compensated for the commute to work.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•88% of Canadians support Air Canada flight attendants, new poll confirmsEnglish161·5 days agoAbsolutely.
Chalk up another one under disappointments from the Carney government.

Eh ben, vivre le Québec libre, câlice!
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Bill C-2 FAQ: Explaining Canada’s Dangerous New Surveillance LawEnglish121·9 days agoEVERYTHING needs attention. The whole country is fucked in so many ways!
From this to fucking heatwave induced forest fires that are asphyxiating us due to global warming, to how we’re complicit in providing funding, weapons, ammo and equipment for a fucking genocide, to how our sovereignty is threatened by some asshole in the U.S. to the housing crisis and food insecurity due to ridiculous inflation and so on and so on.
I fucking hate that we elected this party, AGAIN, to lead our country, with some establishment bean counter at the helm. And to think that if it hadn’t been for Trump, we would’ve had it even worse with a Conservative government! How are people so fucking stupid!
This literally feels like the movie Don’t Look Up. Like it’s obvious we need to do something but nobody’s doing anything only to make a handful of rich assholes happy.
I’m so fed up.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Wildfire on the outskirts of Halifax prompting evacuationsEnglish4·10 days agoBut hey, we gotta build that pipeline from Alberta to Québec to increase oil production and sell to Europe, who is already planning on reducing their oil dependency.
EDIT: /S just in case it wasn’t obvious.

cyborganism@piefed.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Homelessness minister threw out her tenants - then increased rent by £700 a monthEnglish26·16 days agoLook up France-Élaine Duranceau, minister of housing in Québec, Canada. Another fine example.
cyborganism@piefed.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Food too expensive? It’s time for public grocery storesEnglish1·16 days agoWhat we need are co-ops. Unfortunately it’s hard to run one of those. They tend to not make so much money.
