progressive-minded people don’t vote.

Part of the reason is strategic voting because of first-past-the-post not giving a voice to underrepresented communities in our province. People want to vote for their favourite parties not just the two big ones so they dont bother in the end.

Hurting others in "the options" is morally wrong.

Someone who is actually serious about electoral reform like the 40 liberals who did the right thing in voting to advance a citizen's assembly.

Stop being uncivil.

No shooting someone is not humane.

There are other ways to manage populations without subjecting animals to cruelty...

Eating a whole food plant-based diet is not complicated at all as you just need to eat a variety of foods and supplement b12 and vitamin d.

Plant-based diets are full of fruits, vegetables and legumes, with little or no meat or other animal products. In research studies, vegans, people who don't eat any animal products, including fish, dairy or eggs, appeared to have the lowest rates of cancer of any diet.

Mayo Clinic

It is the position of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that appropriately planned vegetarian, including vegan, diets are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. These diets are appropriate for all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, adolescence, older adulthood, and for athletes. Plant-based diets are more environmentally sustainable than diets rich in animal products because they use fewer natural resources and are associated with much less environmental damage. Vegetarians and vegans are at reduced risk of certain health conditions, including ischemic heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, certain types of cancer, and obesity. Low intake of saturated fat and high intakes of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, soy products, nuts, and seeds (all rich in fiber and phytochemicals) are characteristics of vegetarian and vegan diets that produce lower total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and better serum glucose control. These factors contribute to reduction of chronic disease. Vegans need reliable sources of vitamin B-12, such as fortified foods or supplements.

Yup, I saw a young woman supporting republicans due to the bandwagon effect and I'm like they're about to eat your face.

British Columbia, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador & New Brunswick are the most progressive provinces that are the safest.

Quebec is trending progressive in the provincial polls and the Poilierve conservatives couldn't appeal to them according to the federal polls so they're proving to be smartest in that aspect.

Historically Quebec, British Columbia and Ontario are the most most progressive provinces meanwhile the most conservative are Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Mexico might be safer politically but its much more likely to be invaded by fascist America.

Canada is not completely free from fascism as the conservatives have 65% of the political donations, 42% of the popular vote and a 99% chance of winning a majority thanks to winner-take-all first-past-the-post system.

He tried hiding from it to get the "latinos for trump" vote.
