Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

[Jarnhamar]

Have a political system that has greater inclusion of all parties. FPTP has issues, but no matter the push by the electorate to have some form of improved representation, or the promises of parties to do so, it dies on the vine because in the end, it’s about power and influence.

We need a mechanism to hold politicians accountable, or fire them, that's better than "vote for someone else in 4 years".

Its a sad state of affairs... We Canadians accept to little by way of performance and conduct from our Govs and Politicians.

but we didn't accept it so stop beating the public please. We elected a minority albeit a strong minority government. The largest elected group promptly went out and bribed a few opportunists or simply vulnerable individuals to achieve majority status. That is not the fault of the voting public but simply individual avarice.

4 time CPC Marilyn Gladu said funding to her district was cut and the Liberals said if she crosses the floor she will get the funding back.

Canadians basically having their shop window broken then buying protection from people holding rocks.

Canadians elected this Gov and seem to happy with their conduct, purchase of a majority included.

Yes, Canadians get the Gov the deserve.

Neither, confirmation of what Jarnhammer notes below. Are we to believe that any party that gets into a majority position *will actually walk-walk the talk-talk of transparency?

Canadian's should expect better. And one shouldn't use 11 years old articles to justify or defect from present poor performance.

Expect and partake in the political system to support better outcomes.

And shouldn't use 11 years old articles to justify or defect from present poor performance.

Neither justification, nor deflection. Juxtaposition is valid, particularly when someone today is critiquing others for the same behaviour that they were a part of 11 and even more years ago.

Agreed. I do.

Whatever helps you sleep at night.
