Miss Korea Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 2 minutes ago, Ricky Ravioli said: Do you see the words Pierre Pollieve anywhere there? Noooooo. I'd be happy with any government holding these monopolies accountable. But again you try to put words in my mouth and just lie. Literally in that post you quoted I said "I'm sure the government" Quite clearly refering to the current one. Jesus Christ Don't play semantics with me. Who the fuck are you going to vote for? You already said you don't want to vote for the NDP because you think they're propping up Trudeau's Liberals. I'm just going to assume you don't live in Quebec. So who, then? The Green Party? The fucking People's Party? This is the typical response I always hear from rabid Trudeau haters. "I never said I'm supporting the Conservatives I just hate Justin!" When we all know who you're gonna vote for. But by all means - prove me wrong and waste your vote on some random candidate with no chance of winning.

Coconuts Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) 43 minutes ago, Bob Long said: but you guys are the largest voting group now. You have more collective power than the boomers. Use it. We'll see if that actually makes a difference, young voters not turning out to vote isn't an issue unique to Canada. The 2015 election was a different story. https://www.elections.ca/content.aspx?section=res&dir=rec/eval/pes2015/vtsa&document=table1&lang=e It dropped across the board last election. https://www.elections.ca/content.aspx?section=res&dir=rec/eval/pes2021/evt&document=ig&lang=e But by and large, yeah, it appears young Canadians are less likely to vote. The important questions should be why and how do we change that? What influences the divergence in voting habits between old and young Canadian voters? Particularly when you consider that it's an issue that hasn't been unique to today's younger generations. It was an issue predating the 2004 election, but here's the 2004 election. The oldest millennial would have been roughly 23 in 2004. https://www.elections.ca/content.aspx?section=res&dir=rec/part/estim/38ge&document=report38&lang=e https://electionsanddemocracy.ca/canadas-elections/youth-voting-trends How do you address folks being disillusioned with politics or not believing that voting matter? It's not just how you reach millennials, it's how does the government engage Gen Z, who has more in common with the millennial generation than either Gen X or the the boomer generation. It'll be interesting to see how things shift as more of Gen Z reaches voting age. This next election could be telling.

You don't get speak for me or tell me what I am saying. It's almost 2 years out. Yea, you are damn right I probably am going to vote conservative. I sure as hell won't vote liberal. NDP could be a possibility but they have to fuck off with propping up the current government. These are our options. I'm not just gonna vote for a party that's been in power for 8 years and accomplished very little. I don't blindly follow a party like I'm cheering for the Canucks. That's just stupid. I'm done talking to you though as it's clear we have no common ground on any discussions and are going no where Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johngould21 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) 21 minutes ago, Ricky Ravioli said: Question. Has every country handled inflation in the exact same way? Yes or no. Quite literally just it is you who is crying and whining. So maybe head your own advice? Are you actually fucking stupid? Point exactly where I said those words. I seem to remember the UK with inflation well over 10% not too long ago, I hardly doubt its at 2.8% now. Just checked in Feb it was 3.4%, now I guess the Brits are fudging their numbers too? Down from their high of 11.4%. So you see not only Canada and specifically Trudeau can be blamed for high costs of everything and inflation.

You're just wasting everyone's time here by suggesting otherwise. You are Poilievre supporter and a MASSIVE hypocrite for believing he and his party are going to break up the large grocery corporations. I gave you proof of Poilievre's allegiances and you're still gonna vote for him. Now that is the silliest thing you have said TODAY. As for myself? I've voted in the last 4 federal elections. Never fucking voted Liberal in my life. Never voted for Trudeau. That's who you're dealing with - someone who doesn't even support the party or the leader, but is compelled to point out the fact that you're wrong about nearly everything. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sapper Posted March 21 Popular Post Share Posted March 21 (edited) I'm surprised how gullible some folks are Millhouse used the convey protests to plant his seeds of hate and harvested it to gain power Millhouse then helped Stoke the anti sogi trans issues to gather that group and bring them into his house to rise in power Millhouse then chose carbon tax as his next seeds of hate, plated them and then after a tantrum motion heading off to his fundraiser. Gaining more money and bring more into his.house As one outrage hate filled movement stalls.he starts the next As bad as Trudeau is ... It is the conservative party of Canada dividing this country and pitting neighbor vs neighbor .... In a "yer for us or the enemy" mantra I just wish I knew what Millhouse's next fabricated outrage , it's destroying Canada .... Let's protest issue is .., so I can invest in those t-shirts before he changes the seeds of hate he plants next lol Seriously through out this all not one clear policy provided on what he'd actually do differently and what would he cut to pay for it.... When all your selling is hate ... All you need to do is tell your followers who to hate and what to cry outrage about next .....

Personally I'd say greed plays a bigger part. More of an entree than a side. Edited March 21 by Satchmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be interesting to see how things shift as more of Gen Z reaches voting age. This next election could be telling. I can only speak as a Gen X, but for me and my wife as well, we had to eat a lot of shit from boomers on the way up our careers. Yes some things were easier, like housing costs, but many things were not. No one gave a flying fig about anyones feelings, etc. or had any kind of support available. I think thats why millennial and Z's don't get maybe as much support as they might expect, particularly from the boomers. As far as being disillusioned, I always felt that I had options because of my education. If I needed to I could take care of myself (within context, no ones an island). I've always been politically interested, and sometimes active, in my riding association. Its weird to me that 100s of kids show up to protest Israel in Downtown Vancouver, but crickets on protests when it comes to housing. You guys should be camping on city hall lawns and refusing to leave. U40s have to get much more active than they are. Boomers in particular are not going to care about online anger. You have to get in their face and disrupt things. It may not be fair, but it is what it is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
