It sucks that there's effectively no left in Canada. Just different intensities of neoliberal. Except for maybe some municipal greens and NDPs here and there.

That’s wholly untrue, but our voting system sucks so the NDP looks like they don’t have support because of the problem with seats. There are plenty of leftwing people here and plenty more who feel forced to vote for the centrist Liberals because the Conservatives are just plain evil. The NDP, also, despite having no “power” still do a decent job keeping the Liberals moving at least somewhat in the right direction.

It isn’t a great situation, but to say there is no left in Canada is just completely wrong.
