Fred<p>I hate strategic voting. If climate destroying, wealth transfer policies aren't what you want, why are you intending to endorse them at the ballot box? Also the amount of people who push strategic voting, but say not voting is an endorsement of the conservatives is insane. Only one of you is endorsing anti climate plutocratic policies and it isn't the non-voter. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/elxn2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elxn2025</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/elxn45" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elxn45</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/election2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>election2025</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/cdnpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cdnpoli</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/canpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>canpoli</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LPC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LPC</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Liberal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Liberal</span></a></p>

C.<p>I need to say this. When reading this, keep in mind that I have previously declared that there is no Canadian political party which represents my beliefs. Pournelle's two-axis political alignment shows why, and I've mentioned that before.</p><p>That is to say, this is not a partisan effort to support or attack any particular party.</p><p>Ahem:</p><p>Pierre Poilievre is a snake. The comments about him never having actually done anything of value, living off of the federal government's largesse in one way or another, are true but miss the point.</p><p>He is completely unprincipled. His "deeply held beliefs" are whatever he thinks at this moment are most likely to get him elected. Trying to determine what he actually believes is the classic nailing-jelly-to-the-wall. It can't be done.</p><p>He spent the last several years running on nothing but "I'm not Justin Trudeau, and don't you hate Justin Trudeau?" (Keep in mind I was, and am, deeply critical of Trudeau) He did this because it appeared likely to be all that was needed to win, and if you don't actually take positions on anything, you can't be criticized for them.</p><p>He also minored in Trumpism - culture war issues. Looking south, do you think that means PP *really* believes in a woman's right to choose? That all people are equal? That no groups are "othered"?</p><p>You can't pin him down, so assume the worst.</p><p>PP cannot be allowed to lead this country. Vote accordingly.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/election" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>election</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Canada</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/CPC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CPC</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Liberal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Liberal</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/NDP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NDP</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Conservative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Conservative</span></a></p>
