I know nearly nothing about Canadian politics. Are liberals really better than conservatives? (fedia.io)

It's great that Pierre lost and he probably lost to someone better, but were there better candidates for the common people on the ballot? How are liberals as a whole for Canada? Would another party have been better - greens for example?

I've seen a community about better vote counting system, so it seems Canada is still a first past the post country?

Liberals and Conservatives are both corporate whores, the libs just claim to not be as enthusiastic about the whoring. One of the first things Carney did was to turn his back on fighting global warming/climate change. He is painted as the best person to fight tRump and the tariff crap, but all that shit is temporary. Extinction is forever, and global warming is the extinction level event of our lifetime.

But the banks and corporations are happy with him so I guess that is all that matters.
