Canadian Politics Today

F*ck DoFo.

That is all.

I think it shows how conservative the BC NDP are….

Early April, Del Duca does this big grandstanding thing about how Ford was literally murdering your grandma by removing mask mandates and vaccine mandates, accuses him of playing political games with people's lives. 

A couple of days later, we see these pictures from an Ontario Liberals rally, a jam packed indoors gathering with hundreds of people where nobody is wearing a mask or social distancing.

So who's really playing political games? If these people really thought lives were at risk, wouldn't somebody have been wearing a mask?

And, as "the sixth wave" tore through Ontario and resulted in BARELY OBSERVABLE impact on the healthcare system, the Ontario Liberals went from "Ford is playing GAMES with PEOPLE'S LIVES" to "let's talk about...  HANDGUNS".

I certainly get the argument that right-wing political parties have played political games with the pandemic.    But if you're going to tell me that their opponents aren't doing the same, I think the Del Duca Liberals are Exhibit A in the counter-argument.

I think it shows how conservative the BC NDP are….

The Twitter class will bemoan the 42% turnout.

If you don't vote, you can't complain. This was not a change election. Ontario didn't hate Doug as much as the Public Service Unions want you to believe.

In fact, much like in the US. Private Labour and the Blue Collar has rallied around the populist Ford. A highway to relieve congestion is actually quite popular in the ridings you need to win to take Ontario.
