Fun tidbit, the government singles out 38 proposals that benefit men, but only 6 that benefit women.

(And 12 that benefit gender equality, which means even women and gender equality combined get fewer proposals than men.)

There's a short blurb in Annex 6 about it:

Do you have some ridings in mind where following historical trends instead of voting LPC would have given the CPC a seat they didn't actually get?

You don't need to be a strategic psychic; you just need to look at the historical trends in each riding.

For example, it was reasonable to think the NDP was the best choice in North Island—Powell River based on past voting trends, or that the Greens were the best choice in Kitchener Centre.

The consequences of voting on the national level are that the CPC has 8 more seats, and there's no progressive party with the procedural tools of party status.

You'd have had the exact same person in the PMO if people voted per riding; consolidation of power in the PMO is irrelevant.

The CPC literally has at least 8 more seats that it should because people voted "on the national level." Why would you want to give the CPC 8 free seats it didn't deserve?

I can't stress it enough. There's no national level. That's not how it works.

Every vote that isn't for the local winner in a riding is thrown out and does not contribute to the final outcome.

You don't vote on a national level.

If you have "an active interest in the CPC not taking power" and you live in Kitchener Centre, for example, you should have voted Green.

But if you lived in a different riding, the answer is different. In Carleton, the answer was vote Liberal. In North Island—Powell River, the answer was vote NDP.

Look at your riding. Seriously, people online can't tell you that because we don't know where you live. Just look at your riding's history and check which party has the best chance of beating the CPC. It takes 30 seconds.

If anything, I think he needs to understand that his temporary voter coalition will collapse if he continues to steer us to the right.

I'm already hearing a lot of regret from NDP voters who went LPC this time around, and even from some LPC voters who expected Carney to continue Trudeau's policies.

This is the part that drives me up the wall the most. Sure, if you're in a riding where the LPC was really the best shot at beating a CPC surge, vote for the LPC.

But the governor general isn't going to ask PP to form government just because of online posts criticizing Carney's regressive policies.
