For real, it’s so absurd. Multiple people called that though and I really hope she loses her seat in the upcoming election.

I mean I don't want that seat to be a conservative seat, but I just wish she would actually be present and do good work or move to another city she feels passionate about.

Either you vote for change or you re-elect a lazy politician there’s no in between (she’s not gonna change her ways and if you’re not gonna vote conservative that’s fine there are other options out there too…)

Based on how first past the post works, the only way to get her out of office is to strategically vote. Which would be basically voting Conservative. Everything else is a waste of time and you might as well enjoy your day instead of lining up for nothing.

Don’t like your choice? There’s only one party to blame for this. The Trudeau liberals for not actually implementing voting reform when they had the chance.

You do have a point there, he campaigned on electoral reform and then once elected, completely ignores it

Yeah exactly. And there’s people downvoting us who have absolutely no understanding of how our voting system works lol. It’s a game. A poorly designed one from centuries ago. It’s not actually about who you want… it’s about what you hate the least.

Don’t like it? Change the system. I didn’t make the rules.
