What happened in Canada is the appropriate reaction to when a dictator says he wants to take over your country.

    Still a minority government that could topple in a few months… Or even weeks.

      Liberals only need 4 seats for a majority. They can work with the NPD or Bloc to achieve what they want.

      It just means they dont have free reign to do whatever the fuck they want.

        I was watching the results and the news anchor Made it clearly that it was the ndp that pushed for dental care in canada. They pulled the liberals left.

          Yes, this is why the election reform is so important. It will create governments that needs to work with other parties instead of having absolute majority with 35-40% of the vote.

          In my hope of hopes this is the exact outcome I hoped for. A liberal minority with NDP balance, and PP lost his seat!

            I hope that the NPD can find a good leader. Singh wasn’t the right person, and he held on too long.

          I totally agree, they have to work with other parties to get things done.

      Our last government was a minority and made it the full 4 years

        Which was unusual as they usually last 18 months.

        That’s the reality anyway, a minority government can topple at any time.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS
