We’ve done it, we got rid of another soulless right wing politician!

Peter Dutton first made his party lose this election and now also lost his own seat much like Pierre Pullover

We’ve still got a government that green-lit new coal power plants in it’s last term, screwed over the Aboriginal community with a poorly run referendum, and still doesn’t give a shit about climate change, but baby steps hey.

Quite true. Trudeau literally ran on voting reform and that is partly why he got elected, then once in power, realized that it actually benefited his political ambitions and then lied and bail on it, back in 2017.

Most Canadians and almost all Liberals that I have spoken to have forgotten this because they are too biased and fail to look at the party and their actions, objectively.

Just to prove that the Liberal party can be total hypocrites: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/feb/01/justin-trudeau-abandons-voter-reform-canada

I wished people were more objective rather than merely vote due to political tribalism.
