No. Fck you. I will not remain civil while Conservative politicians keep attempting and succeeding in taking away our rights.

Some ideas can be discussed civilly, such as taxes, corporate regulations or approaches to climate change, but when one side has operated in bad faith for so long, civility is out the door.

Conservatives want at me and one of my family members out of Canadian society. Until they change their position they don't deserve civility.

We do pay a huge price by sacrificing civility.

Is that price higher than the cost of civility, though? One angry group consistently shows up at the voting booth. If having progressives stressed and angry is the price to pay for their voter turnout, please continue with the rage bait.
