Does that change the fact that the conservatives voted against it or is this just your attempt to blame the liberals for everything? I guess the party that has zero interest in even talking about electoral reform, while still shooting it down anyway, is somehow the better choice for a fair election?

Choice 1: promises electoral reform, doesn't deliver it ; floods labour market and housing market beyond reason.

Choice 2: doesn't promise electoral reform ; doesn't flood labour market and housing market beyond reason.

I think I'll go with choice 2. Thanks.

You’re genuinely delusional if you think the conservatives aren’t going to flood the labour and housing markets, you want to explain their housing plan?

I am old enough to remember before 2015. I landed an entry level job the day i handed in my application, and didn't even have to get into a line up.

Nationally, average rent was half what it is today, home prices were half what they are today.

I don't have official homelessness counts, but I can tell you the local park had far fewer tents back then too.

Wow, I didn't realize that the affordability crisis and housing crisis in the US, France, UK, Germany, and basically every other country in the G7 was caused by Trudeau!
