So, if I'm understanding you correctly, you want a centrist party (but not the one we have), and you want it to be more like a left wing party, which we have have several others that haven't reached prominence.

The Green party is more centrist than others with a desire to actually deal with climate change.

Yeah I think I have misunderstood your point because any centrist party is gonna end up sounding like the liberals and anybody as far left as the NDP are not centrist.

No, I was speaking more generally. When I said center/left I meant it in the way the ABC people use it. I don't like the Liberals, but I also do not want the Conservatives to win. Unfortunately that looks like where we're headed. I just hope that if the Cons do win (which once again I do not want but I have just 1 vote), the Liberals lose big and take it as a wakeup call to change or be relegated to the perpetual 3rd place party. None of those other posts were trying to say what party I would like, sorry for the confusion.

Ah, so because you don't like a party you want all of us to suffer to learn a lesson.

Dude, wake the fuck up, you're playing into the con's game.

Clearly I'm not good at articulating my point so I'm going to stop trying. I don't know what I'm saying that would benefit the Conservatives in any way. My riding is NDP with the cons playing catch up and the Greens have a better chance than the Liberals. So maybe we're just coming from different perspectives. Voting for Liberals here is a vote for conservative.

Voting for Liberals here is a vote for conservative.

And here lies the crux of the problem.

Finally we can agree on something.
