I think both positions or "irreparably damaging the country" is a gross overstatement (the arguably part

). I have been disappointed in some of the scandals and some of the policy decisions and the overall governance but I don't think the Liberals have been as bad as they are portrayed. I think they have added a lot of good new policies (and their fair share of poor ones) but nothing is irreparably damaged.
Also, as much as I dislike the Reform party and their Neo-Preston politics, I don't think they will be as damaging as they are being portrayed. While I do think they are on the level of the UCP (Neoliberal Prestonites), I also don't think Federally the populace would put up with everything happening in Alberta to the same extent as Albertans do and they will not be able to push the same agenda. It will be a lot more business friendly, and lower/middle class antagonistic, but nothing that will damage the fabric of the country.
I agree with a point a few pages ago that opendoor made by calling the liberals milquetoast. They have been meh, and Trudeau has been ugh, but based on policy and platform alone and how the majority of Canadians would benefit, I would still vote Liberal over the CPC. But luckily I vote NDP and have my own meh leader to worry about.
