      Why is this fascism? Seems like good old fashioned religious intolerance and violence.

      Though this article skipped some details on that aspect.

        Which, let’s be honest, tends to be best buddies with fascism…

        The Liberal party of Canada promised electoral reform (in two separate elections!) so they’re probably referring to that

          The ndp campaigned for it too. Parliament needs to pass proportional representation for the people so we can have more choices and more accountability.

            Totally agree. I’d love to see the NDP take Parliament but it seems unlikely to ever happen with strategic voting… Probably the reason the Liberals keep going back on their promise of reform

              Well if the liberals are shortsighted they will be locked out of power forever with the conservatives under Pierre Poilievre. He threatened to suspend the charter of humans rights and liberties whenever he so pleases just like the conservative premiers like Scott Moe hurting trans children.
