It’s the grass greener effect.
With Trudeau and Biden it seemed like shifting right would be like the pendulum swinging the other way.
Now voting cons feels like doubling down on something that turned on us for no reason other than maybe colonialism.
- We can just as easily swing left here in Canada, any choosing Conservatives for change doesn’t know their fucking colours if they think that’s where the grass is gunna grow.
  
  It sucks that there's effectively no left in Canada. Just different intensities of neoliberal. Except for maybe some municipal greens and NDPs here and there.
  
  That’s wholly untrue, but our voting system sucks so the NDP looks like they don’t have support because of the problem with seats. There are plenty of leftwing people here and plenty more who feel forced to vote for the centrist Liberals because the Conservatives are just plain evil. The NDP, also, despite having no “power” still do a decent job keeping the Liberals moving at least somewhat in the right direction.
  It isn’t a great situation, but to say there is no left in Canada is just completely wrong.
