Why would someone as smart as him be uncertain about ensuring every vote counts?
Because it’s an absolute waste of political capital to make happen if there isn’t a strong movement fighting for it.

He’s repealing the consumer carbon tax.
It’s easy to just shift the costs to the background by charging producers. The outcome is largely the same.
The increased Liberal momentum has boosted the NDP’s chance to win my riding substantially so I’m definitely grateful for that.
Carney seems like he’s open to electoral reform so hopefully this is the last FPTP election.
What is your affiliation with the Fairvote organization?
See if you can find an advertiser to promote their content on your sub. As the mod you control if it stays or not.
Get paid for your power until everyone leaves or you get canned lol
I was already subbed lol, I’m also on the mailing list.
My MP voted for M-86 and I volunteered for them last cycle. I don’t really know what else to do.
“Canada’s liability would be no greater than US$346.7 million” – the difference between what it had already contributed and what was remaining of the original US$551 million commitment.
Since the analysis was produced, the Liberal government has paid another US$33 million.
Considering that there are Canadian companies that have contracts related to the f35 and they would almost certainly be cancelled or not renewed, running down the clock isn’t a terrible idea. The $300+m is already a sunk cost.
It’ll probably be easier for you to buy or support Canadian digital media than physical goods.
Contributing to Canadian projects or gofundme’s would also be highly direct.
Canada has hummed and hawwed about electoral reform for decades. It just hasn’t been worth the required political capital to make it happen for any of the leaders.
This could be key to finally getting it done.

From another page:
“In addition, Canada will have full and exclusive control over Gripen’s secure data – a unique advantage of our offer. The Gripen Centre in Montreal will host all work on the fighter’s mission system and Canadians will carry out this work. With the mission system, communications and technical data all hosted in Canada, Gripen exceeds all industrial, security and controlled goods requirements. With Gripen the Royal Canadian Air Force will have maximum control over sensitive data handling.”
It’s a no brainer, in a world of digital warfare, needing to rely on a foreign home base is a tremendous liability.
If your only goal was to win, why would you want to be handcuffed by the responsibility?

Increasing domestic drone and munition (mortar shells, AT mines, grenades) production would be valuable too.
Even better!
Doubtful, it’s probably in storage or being sent back to warehouses. They’re likely betting on Orange Foolius folding in a couple weeks.
No reason to take a loss when it’s already paid for. Storing it will hurt the US more than destroying it then reordering a month from now.
MMP is my dream system. I like the idea of retaining local reps even if we have less of them.
From what I understand though, FairVote is pro PR and I don’t know of any other sizable electoral reform organizations.
If we were to assume that everyone would just wait until the 15th to do all their amazon orders that they waited a week for then I would agree it’s symbolic.
For many, this will be what happens, but for some, they will find an alternative. Then maybe in the future they chose that alternative too. It’s about gradual progress towards better alternatives. For you, maybe finding ways to make your work less reliant on those things would help. Or if that’s not possible maybe working somewhere else that doesn’t make you sacrifice your values.
As an example, one person choosing to educate themselves on animal welfare might not have much effect today, or tomorrow, or even next week. But after years, even small changes can mean the elimination of suffering for dozens or hundreds of lives.
I agree, but I’m not the one you need to convince, it’s Terry on Facebook who spends 2 hours a day complaining about bike lanes and vegans.
