Sure, you can put centre wherever you are comfortable. You’re missing the point I’m trying to make though (deliberately, I assume), and that is that the NDP used to be a bit more to the left, and now they have moved a bit more towards the centre-line moving in the rightward direction on that spectrum. Some might say “shifting a bit to the right”. Maybe not a lot, but enough to water down their platform and push them at least firmly into just centrist territory and not centre-left, but I still consider them just to the right of centre.

I think so much of Western societies have shifted quite a bit to the right along with increased globalisation and free trade, and a bunch of US influence and missions trying to eradicate socialist governments, that it has blurred where ‘centre’ is on the spectrum, and ‘centre’ to many people has moved rightward along with the general sentiment of society today. Which is why I think a centre-left party a little bit further left of the NDP would be nice. That or if the NDP shuffled left a couple times and decided to be bold and go all-in on a proper all-encompassing left of centre policy.

Not at all. I’m saying there’s a spectrum between a full centrally planned left wing wing government, and a full free market right wing government, and the Canadian political parties generally fall somewhere towards the centre of that spectrum, and that over the past 30 years the NDP along with the Liberals and Conservatives have shifted towards the right. In the case of the NDP, I think that while they have been a centre-left party, some of the concessions they have made with Singh have pushed NDP economic policy to the centre of that spectrum, and possibly crossing over the centre-line. Maybe they aren’t quite at that point, but if they continue on that trend, I think it would be good to have another party further to the left. NOT communism. NOT authoritarian. Democratic, but willing to use more government intervention rather than keep looking at only free market solutions, tax cuts, and bailouts. The NDP just isn’t quite left enough, in my opinion.

That’s hardly a comparable to alt-right shit. Oh, the horror of Canada profiting off of it’s resources in order to run BC Ferries and Canada Post (and all the other services that never make the news) like services instead of companies and have well funded health and education systems. The NDP needs to stop selling out (and admitting defeat before the election has happened) or we need an actual centre-left option. Seems like a pretty valid opinion! Not everything has to be black and white, fully right or left with no in-between, or ability for political parties to shift over time.

I didn’t say they are a right wing party… I said that they are drifting right of centre and not really a left-of-centre party any more. They have a socially conscious platform, and in my opinion are the best of the bunch. But economically, they aren’t really a left-of-centre party. They still subscribe to a generally free market and even in their 2025 platform, while they commit money to a national housing strategy, they still aren’t trying to centralise housing and omit the private developers entirely. They still want to try and legislate private industry in a free market rather than centralise. What I would like to see is an ACTUAL left leaning party, where the government controls the means of supply for our basic needs and critical industries. The government should be directly employing crews to build a variety of housing options. Not just banning REITs and hedgefunds from purchasing affordable housing, but also eliminating the private landlords and having strict standards for property management. The government should be in control of our oil and minerals. The government should control our ferries,mail service, and other services and operate them like the services they are and not corporations, or crown corporations. While I think the NDP is the best we have, I also feel like they have drifted more to the centre and even passing over it during the past 30 years, and I think there is room for a proper left-of-centre party that is more than just words and bandaids and actually has a desire to overhaul our economy to be able to support the social programs that don’t really work when everything is trying to operate as a business, crown corp or not. Nationalise our resources and actually get some income for the government that isn’t just taxes, and invest it into our country, services, and infrastructure.

I think we need an actual left-of-centre party. The NDP is just a right-of-centre party who support some minor social programs as long as they don’t interfere too much with extracting money via capitalism. I’m not looking for a socially progressive right-of-centre party. I want to see an actual left-of-centre party. A party that would nationalise our resources and use the proceeds to fund centralised housing, healthcare, education, parks and recreation spaces, infrastructure, and other things that people need and enjoy. A party that wants to improve labour standards and invest in ourselves, and move away from US style capitalism. It can be done.

Every word from that limp-dick losers mouth just makes me hate the US a little bit more.

Meanwhile cars have inters bolted on. So just put on the fucking wets and go racing and let the drivers use their fucking judgements. It’s not fucking rocket appliances.

Two and a half brain cells is an awfully big complement for that filthy fascist fuck-stain.

And threatening Canada’s sovereignty is worse than pulling US alcohol or tariffs. So choke on my hairy Canadian ballsack Lawson, you filthy fascist cunt.

You guys will need to clean the orange shit stain from it before I’ll touch it with a 1000km pole. That’s toxic fascist shit.

A Canadian one dollar coin is often referred to as a Loonie because they have a picture of a Loon on one side. A two dollar coin is generally referred to as a Toonie as play off of Loonie, although it has a picture of a Polar Bear.
