    We still have an awful lot of work to do to fix our democracy and actually unite Canadians, despite the claims that everyone felt united by Trump’s threats, this election was full of red flags if you actually look at the numbers they show we’re about as far from united as we can possibly be, and it is going to be a herculean task to change that. We need to stop the flood of misinformation, especially the really toxic stuff targeting and radicalizing our youth who are going to be the next generation of politicians and voters. We are not in a healthy place, AT ALL, and my only hope is that between the Liberals and NDP they can both agree on how serious these threats really are and take serious steps to address them.

      If he’s a facist he’s keeping it under wraps. I live here (too?) and he strikes me more as a fiscal conservative. He for-sure doesn’t respect minimum wage workers but he doesn’t scapegoat or “other” any group like you’d expect to see of a far-right Conservative. I just think he’s the type who wants to funnel public money to his white-collar business buddies through contracts and tax breaks.
