I sincerely wish the CPC could be an option, what is your issue with that?

O'Toole, Poilievre, Sheer, Harper, pick your leader isn't the reason why you would not vote CPC. They as a party are ideologically just not compatible which is perfectly fine, and they are clearly going the wrong path of going center right now. The CPC has done nothing to get your vote.

Actually the constant misleading of Canadians on matters that I happen to consider very important by those individuals plays a major role in why I won’t vote for them. Being dishonest isn’t exactly what I’m looking for in a representative. Sure it doesn’t help that a lot of their policies are garbage, but in most cases if I have little faith in the character of a candidate there policies become secondary.

But question the use the word 'criminal' of allegations, and why every single time a scandal arises, the discussion eventually always goes back to 'well that's bad, but let me tell you why I morally cannot vote CPC"

I don’t see what your issue is with calling out someone making a patently false statement. If you see me do it, by all means call me out on it. That poster knows I’m right which is why they never defended their statement. IMO we need more people in this world calling out bull#### when they see it, not less. You’re free to disagree with that if you’d like.

It's blatant whataboutism meant to abstain from actively criticizing 'your side' when frankly it should be about Canada.

I don’t have a “side”. Free agent over here

You know why I don’t have a side? Because I give a damn about the direction this country is and has been going in for some time and I don’t think that the solution is to pick a team when as a voter I can be trying to get every party to pull their heads out of their asses instead of just my “team”.
