Bloc are left of the Liberals
It’s not that simple. The Bloc support a number of positions (mainly around immigration and language laws, minorities, and religious clothing) that we would consider hard right in the rest of the country. They could definitely find common ground with the Conservatives on an anti-immigration bill, for example.
That’s left wing
Right wing are the religious people
They could with the NDP but not the Cons who promise to make immigration easier
It's almost like we need more axes to describe political views than just left and right.
It’s fine but I think the person’s problem is that they think anything they don’t like is right wing and they don’t view parties as having opinions across the board
The CAQ who implemented the law is right wing.
The comment you replied to already addressed that
And if you follow the other chain then you’ll see they mistakenly thought it didn’t apply to Christians so after being corrected they most likely agree with the law
