Most of my family, including my Octogenarian parents, are die-hard NDP voters. We have always recognized the sky-high value of good socialist policies that directly benefit the working class that produce 99% of all economic output, but get only a fraction of that back as wages.

The problem here is that in this election, the choice comes down to picking a globalist, or becoming the 51st state.

And I don’t want to become the 51st state. So I am doing my best to ensure that PeePee doesn’t win. Trump’s lapdog is nothing more than a rage-farmer, gleefully pointing out what is wrong and who is to blame, but providing absolutely no effective solutions that actually help the working class. And when push comes to shove, he will roll over and open the gates to a Trump occupation of Canada.

We would love to still vote NDP, but the stakes are just far too high, so we’re voting for the “less evil” option in the Liberals.
