Fiscal conservatives are never and have never been "fiscally conservative". Rather than being conscious of and considerate about how they spend our communal resources, they have always just believed that there should be no communal resources, and the rich should get to run roughshod over us all.

Trump, and many of his supporters, think that America is China's biggest client. They're totally blind to the idea that China is China's biggest client, and that it's not even close.

Their total lack of understanding of the world outside their little exceptionalist bubble is hilarious and depressing

Let's throw a wrench into things: Dual Member Proportional, a system that doesn't send people who haven't directly stood for election to Ottawa.

Then leave. You've contributed nothing but vitriol, and without explanation. You seem to have no gripe, yet desperately want to gripe. Why don't you do that somewhere you find more entertaining?

Like under a bridge, or something.

The NDP really doesn't have a leg to stand on, let alone to throw their weight around. If they topple the government and force another election anytime soon, the electorate will absolutely stomp on them.

When faced with an existential threat, humans do not do the foundational things that prevent those threats from returning. They tackle the facade. Trying to be threatening to stability while everyone feels so deeply threatened and unstable is more likely to destroy the party than to accomplish anything, no matter how good an idea they may want to push.

Plus, the BQ has already thrown their support behind Carney.

The NDP needs to get their house in order, and actually build support by being active members of the community again, and not just the milquetoast social democrat political party with no media outlet backing them.

They’re all voting anti-Liberal, not pro-Conservative.

There are more than two parties running in every riding in Alberta. They don't show them the time of day, either.

They're just smart enough to be embarrassed for their pro-conservative votes.

Jesus, I know some people have weirdly hostile reactions to the Examiner, but come on.

I saw. Bringing the original Canadian cast back for the announcement trailer fills me with fuzzy butterflies and fluttering kittens.

Unpopular opinion, I know, but downvotes are an anti-feature, designed to excuse big, for-profit social media from actually moderating their platforms. They have no place in real social spaces.

You answer your own question.

And from this post, I discovered there's a new SPC game im development.

They value winning too much to actually fall apart, unfortunately.
