    Capitalists are gonna have a meltdown when we’ll have to implement the 4 weeks minimum paid vacation, banked overtime with a yearly limit, bretter minimum wage, tougher regulations on food and environment protection. Etc.

      Fun fact, Canadians can legislate these things on our own, without having to also adopt a whole bunch of European dysfunction.

      I’ll probably get called entitled, but even 3 weeks isn’t enough, and I know that’s more than many people get.

      Yet i can get behind this framework as something good for the population. It’s like a NDP program but more realistic and with economic growth with our peers as a target.

      This year (most years) i will vote Liberal but i did vote NDP on and off in the past and my circumscription changes from red to orange often in the last two decades.

        I’m still voting NDP. We can still get a minority liberal government with a strong NDP coalition.

        I’ve always been an NDP voter but my anxiety about Cons winning might push a liberal vote from me this time. I don’t love it, but I am also just terrified.

          It’s a shame really. I’m not a fan of PP by any means. But he’s right when he says it’s going to be more of the same, i fear.

      Fucking worth the extra taxes. The EU isn’t perfect, but they’re still sane enough to back.
