But I thought all 3 leading parties sucks on this front if you are a fiscal conservative.

The CPC could be smarter fiscally, if their base didn't get hung up on distractions like firearm bans.

the cpc could be smarter fiscally, if they didn't need to appeal to the retards in the east that don't understand money just to have a chance at winning an election.

Great news all you leftists, if you are worried about vote splitting, and want to be strategic, this tool will check your riding and tell you what to do: https://votewell.ca/

Now what would be really neat is to hack that algorithm, and get it to give wrong advice, and see if you can sway a few ridings. I'd giggle.

In your link above, there's too many ridings in Ont and Que to scroll through before you get to Western provinces.

Well, Legault just endorsed O'Toole..... so we are back to square 1 on fiscal policy among the parties?

If you surrender your location, it'll tell you right the way.

I don’t think it’s much of a surprise for the leader of Quebec’s conservative provincial party to endorse the federal conservatives. It’s like kenney or moe endorsing O’Toole. I suppose they could have endorsed the bloc instead. I wonder who he endorsed last two elections?

ROFL. I chuckled as it's telling me NDP is the strategic vote... Meanwhile showing a giant blue bar graph 3 times the size of all the other parties added together.

I was wondering what's going on until I read what the website is about.

Basically it's to avoid vote splitting between NDP and Liberal so less conservative seat wins based on split.

It's still pointless in AB since most ridings are blue with 60-70% of the votes. Splitting made little difference here other than may be 4 ridings.

The only dark horse would be PPC to split to vote on the right as most people in AB/SK seems to hate O'Toole.

Not sure what the game is here. But Conservatives are polling 10 pts behind PQ and 14 pts behind Liberals in QC. By saying CPC will give more autonomy to Quebec, he probably split vote between PQ and CPC for Liberal to sail thru.

And he said it right when advance polling starts. Still an interesting play. Remember, O'Toole is promising to take $6B away from Legault on the child care deal with Libs.

It's a funny concept for the website, especially for the Alberta ridings.

There may be a few to half-a-dozen Alberta ridings where the right vote split might come into play on top of how NDP support might shift to the Liberals on election day. Margins where that ~5% PPC vote might actually be the difference if it holds.

PPC voters seem more of a 'let the world burn' type of voter rather than one that considers the pros and cons of strategic voting.

Basically the 'No Values Voters' of the 2020s.

More like the only values voters this election. I would like to vote for values in a world devoid of them, but I can't take the chance and have to be strategic myself when it comes to getting rid of China puppet Trudeau.

I voted. The lineup took 40mins. Quite a lot of people out voting..
I am curious about voter turnout in this election.

Since Turdeau loves China's Basic Dictatorship, why not adopt their Social Credit Score For Businesses?

How ironic given China's record on Human rights abuse, work conditions, and environment


What's next, Turdeau adopting China's Social Credit Score for Citizens?? It's not like he's not trying.

[zechs]

Voted PPC in a riding solidly CPC. Would have voted Maverick but they weren't running a candidate.

Maverick is such a stupid cringey name though, there is nothing maverick about 50 year old white guys shaking their fists at clouds.

Looks like Liberals have moved back to minority status in the polls. Fuck this country, hopefully I can get out sooner vs later.

On the topic of Social Credit (NDP):

Historically China has scored sports teams as very low on social credit. If you really think about it, you usually have two teams of five or six with another twenty benchwarmers - whos entire purpose is to put a ball or piece of rubber into a ring or rectangular goal.

If there wasn't any sort of spectator value, knitting would probably be more productive. With digital entertainment nowadays, watching the small ball go into a hoop for the 1,000th time - kind of loses it appeal for some. To engrain in the white male (and in the USA black male) that throwing a ball is actually worth more than its physical action. Should have kept it as the Olympics? I'm actually more exited for Pokemon Unite on android, than watching another human ball toss game on the HDTV.

It might have been one of the great mistakes, to idolize and give million dollar salaries to sports. Should have kept it as the Olympics? Or should we be paying purely for entertainment value, in which case should videogame players make more than basketball players, because I'm getting bored of looking at the same orange ball year on year?

Side note: As social credit, if this was the 1950's (USA greatest period of growth) I'd assume that a basketball player would be paid less than a knitter.

"I am less sure about the 50s and 60s, but I remember reading that Terry Bradshaw (No 1 overall draft pick, Hall of Fame quarterback, and four time Super Bowl winner) had to sell insurance during the offseason to make ends meet during the 1970s."

Frown about this last week.
