With the Liberals being the status quo. NDP would actually move the government left (out of centre, but not by much). Greens need to be able to have a consistent message across their party to be taken seriously. Something they lacked in the last election.
The whole “let’s vote with the Cons to take the carbon tax off all home heating” is a big red flag.
The Liberals fucked up with their exemption. And the NDP leadership seemed to think doubling down on the fuckup was reasonable.
The right approach would be doubling down on incentives to get people off heating oil (as the Liberal proposal does), rather than undermining climate policy.
The fact that they are anti-nuclear, when safe nuclear reactors that produce almost no radioactive waste exist, make the Greens a complete non-starter for me.
Solar and wind are great, but they still don’t hold a candle to nuclear’s reliability and consistency of power output.
Umm have you followed the Canadian Green party in recent years? I don’t think I’d trust them to organize a bake sale, let alone a federal government. Just being ideologically correct sure ain’t enough to be government.
Electing the Greens with a majority would be a start…
Even just the NDP would probably be a step in the right direction.
Hell, I’ll just be happy if we avoid electing the CPC and smol PP.
It’s ABC.

The Canadian Green Party is not fit to govern a country.
Which puts them squarely in line with the other contenders so what is your point
the green party isn’t fit to govern themselves
