The party used to have a large and engaged progressive contingent involved in its governance. Most of those people have been driven away or have been banned as members. The NDP is not interested in good governance, they are interested in having a very small elite that controls every single thing about the part, the ridings, and its members and has ZERO tolerance for anyone who wants to do anything that isn't following the orders of the that elite.

So yeah, the NDP doesn't deserve good governance because that is not what the party wants.

With anti-democracy Lucy Watson being made national director, the party will be more and more like the Liberals from a policy standpoint. So I guess voting Liberal just skips the middle man?

If the party actually allowed itself to be ruled by its grassroots, then maybe things would be different, but it is fervently opposed to being accountable to its members - and largely even their own bylaws.

This right here. I don’t know why, but Telemann got me through university… well, Telemann and Dexedrine.

Man, it seems like she is getting more useless by the day. It’s really sad how much the development of Siri has been left to flounder since its introduction.

This is very true. None of his monied interest “friends” have sold him the idea yet. Now maybe if the consumption site had some fancy spa and and a parking lot under Lake Ontario, that would get us a site in no time.

I mean they murder and assault innocent civilians and face next to zero accountability for that, so I wouldn’t expect them to walk park appropriately and actually walk to get their doughnuts.

That is awful. I hope you can find relief somewhere.

I’ve been lucky and the drugs are a godsend for me, despite having the gene that makes me hyper metabolize stimulants (which basically means they don’t last long enough in my system).

It is seriously under-appreciated how awful this disorder is in the modern world - especially if you are not of the wealthier classes.

There’s the special justice system for the police, then the one the rest of us get.

I think the owner thought that Loblaws has had too much good press and wanted to level it out a little with some arbitrary and foolish manager bullshit.

Yeah, you never see the Cons trying that sort of thing! Disgusting libs using what a politician actually says and does against them - presposterous!
