Canada General Discussion: Trudeau II

[Holmes]

Idiot party.

[Holmes]

In theory, Mulcair could run in the Leadership election, right?

Yeah. But the message is clear.

[Holmes]

The NDP has a lot of problems. Hopefully this will fix some of them, but I wouldn't count on it.

We're probably going to get a useless and incompetent leader who can't debate or talk about public policy like an adult. I'm betting on Nikki Ashton.

[Holmes]

Well, it's not my New Democratic Party of 2011 anymore. That was peak NDP and now we're back to full on "shoot self in the foot for the sake of it" mode. At least Horvath isn't horrible, I'll continue to support her and the provincial party, but at least I won't have to live under Premier Brown.

I hardly consider peak NDP being at the point when the Liberals are to the left of you.

Cool, but living under an NDP opposition was the only good thing about a Conservative majority at the time, and they were a damn good opposition under competent leadership. I don't give a damn about some poor stupid delegates thinking that the party doesn't seem to be left-wing enough for them. They've only put another obstacle in the NDP's long road out of obscurity.

I mean, I don't care anymore, really they're all horrible and I don't even live there anymore, but it's fun watching people trip over themselves to proclaim that Trudeau is this big feminist icon that must be protected while attacking and denouncing the actual woman that was involved in this altercation.

But he's a man so it's all good.
