I mostly agree, though Canadas system is based on electing a local representative that forms the government, so that’s not actually how our democracy works. But either way that will happen with no complaints from me once the Liberals have elected their leader and PP forces an election.
Is there a way to know when a link is gonna be a video I can’t watch or listen to right now?
I’m annoyed as well, but the opposition has made clear that they will take the government down and force an election if they are permitted. And they will do that once the Liberals have their new leader and end proroguing. (Prorogation?)
Do you think it serves the people to not know who the liberal leader will be, or to not hold a proper election for that leader, so we can rush to an election early?
I think people who think that’s a good idea probably have goals that skew more towards “anything to give MY team the upper hand!” than “I would like the population to be informed and given the best from the choices available from each party.”
In a perfect world, the opposition would also feel this way and government wouldn’t have to be shut down while the liberals have their race.
I’m on Lemmy connect and it shows only a little paperclip “link” icon. But no hint that it’s gonna be a video, unless all paperclip links are links?
